I do not teach you to copy my shape, because the goal is to make the practice your own. Instead, I help you understand the 'how' and 'why' behind each movement so you can build a practice that fits your life, not the other way around. My practice is my laboratory. It is a space for intellectual inquiry and meditative movement where I explore both my limits and my potential. Often, when we start practicing from videos or books, we treat yoga like physical education, mimicking the external form without grasping the essence. In my virtual shala, we change that. Whether you are joining for our Mysore-style sessions or a guided Led class, the focus is on personal guidance and real-time feedback. I teach in both Ukrainian and English to create a supportive, international community. Ashtanga is an intellectual practice that, over time, becomes deeply meditative. We work on the foundational details like Uddiyana Bandha and proper breathing so that the practice stops being a mechanical chore and starts being a source of energy. I have navigated injury, post-partum recovery, and the chaos of traveling with a baby, so I know that a 'perfect' practice is a myth. A short practice is not a bad practice. The only 'perfect' practice is the one you actually do. Come as you are, and let’s work on your alignment and breath together. ## About Tanya Lymar Hi, I'm Tanya. Motherhood flipped my world upside down, and my mat became the place where I found myself again. I teach Ashtanga online, not just as a workout, but as a way to handle life’s chaos with a little more grace and strength.
