One Year withKino MacGregor& Tim Feldmann

Kino and Tim invite you to join a select group of dedicated Ashtangis to spend one full year studying, practicing and exploring the deeper dimensions of yoga.

For many years, apprenticeship and mentorship have been a central part of how we have shared Ashtanga Yoga at Miami Life Center. We have always found that the especially dedicated student should be offered an opportunity to dig deeper into Yoga. Therefore we have offered such sadhakas to practice closely with us, assist, study, and learn through direct experience. This one-year program is a continuation of that same tradition of teaching and study, this time extending the experience across both online and in-person learning.

This is an apprenticeship for students whose hearts yearn to embody Patañjali's eight limbs of yoga as guiding principles for living and the Ashtanga method as the vehicle.

Over twelve months, we will share the knowledge and experience we have received from our teachers and through study of classical texts and strive to uphold in our decades of practice and teaching. Our approach is rooted in the teachings of Patañjali, Kapila's Sāṅkhya, Śaṅkara's Bhagavad Gītā, Vipaśyanā as well as the living tradition of Ashtanga Yoga that we have been fortunate to study in India with K. Pattabhi Jois and R. Sharath Jois.

This is not simply a course of study. It is an opportunity to practice, inquire, and gradually embody the teachings through direct experience.

Our focus is on the lived and applied experience of yoga — developing skill in asana and adjustments, understanding the vinyasa method, exploring yogic breathing, prāṇāyāma and meditation, classical texts, Sanskrit and chanting, teaching methodology, and the many ways the eight limbs can become relevant to everyday life, on and off the mat.

Through conscious practice and action, we hope to cultivate the seeds of clarity, wisdom, compassion and devotion.
