The Rocket ® Journey

Embark on The Rocket Journey, an introduction to Rocket ® Yoga designed to immerse you in its dynamic and energizing routines. This training will guide you through the foundations of Rocket Yoga, offering a playful and accessible approach to the traditional Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga system. With plenty of variations and modifications, Rocket Yoga makes the practice more adaptable, fun, and stimulating for all levels.

What is Rocket® Yoga?

Rocket ® Yoga was developed in the 1980s in San Francisco, California, by Larry Schultz, a dedicated student of Pattabhi Jois and famously known as “The Bad Boy of Ashtanga.” Schultz restructured the first, second, and third series of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, incorporating key asanas from the fourth series, creating a fast-paced, fluid, and empowering practice.

This dynamic Vinyasa practice, supported by Ujjayi Pranayama, integrates strength, flexibility, balance, and relaxation, leaving the body feeling purified and the mind lighter. Rocket Yoga is structured into three progressive levels:

ROCKET ® 1 (Open Level)

A foundation-building sequence that enhances flexibility, strength, and balance in the back and legs. Expect inversions, arm balances, and fluid transitions woven into a steady-paced practice.

ROCKET ® 2 (Intermediate Level)

This sequence focuses on building endurance, strengthening the back, and opening the hips, preparing practitioners for deeper exploration of the practice.

THE ROCKET “PLAYSHOP”

The Playshop will combine all the best bits of the famous Rocket's routines inspired by the Primary, Intermediate and Advance Series of Ashtanga Vinyasa, and then blends them into a faster, more highly charged power through the sequences.
We'll break down the key poses of the Rocket series, adding modifications to make certain postures more accessible to newcomers, and at the same time playing with unusual transitions to add some extra challenge for those ready to play harder.
This class is full of core and upper body strengthening drills, inversions, back bending and spinal twists to invigorate and awaken the nervous system.

In this playshop, we’ll take the favourite bits of the sequence working on modifications to help you get into your first free-standing pincha, or for the regular inversion pilots we’ll flirt with the some of the more spicy transitions to make your progress through the sequence as graceful and seamless as possible.
Open to all levels :)
