Stop wishing. Start practicing. See you on the mat. 🕯️

Why “The Sadhana Mala” this February? 🤍

A mala is a circle of beads held together by a single thread. Your practice is much the same—each day you show up is a bead, and your breath is the thread that holds it all together.

February is often when New Year momentum begins to fade. We created this challenge to help you:

📿 Find Consistency: Move past the occasional visit and into a consistent daily ritual.

📿 Build Heat: Use Tapas (discipline) to clear the mind.

📿 Connect with the Collective: Practice alongside your community at both locations.

No matter where you are in the Series, there is a place for you on the string.

Something deeper than a resolution... 📿

January is for starting. February is for staying.

In the Ashtanga tradition, we call it Sadhana—a disciplined, daily practice that becomes a ritual of returning to yourself.

This February, Ashtanga Nashville and The Practice Room invite you to string together your intentions and honor the heart of the practice in our dual studio-wide challenge: The Sadhana Mala.

The Goal: Complete 28 practices or mini challenges in 28 days. Classes will be available in person at both locations and online.

The Ritual: Every participant receives a physical Mala Tracker card. For every class taken or mini challenge completed, you’ll color a bead.

Together, we’ll complete the circle.

✨ Sign up via the link in our bio. ✨ Pick up your physical tracker at either studio starting Feb 1st.

“A shala is wherever practice happens— in garages or parks, hallways or bedrooms, hotel rooms or balconies. It is the energy, intention and devotion to practice the student brings that makes a space sacred. This year our community has undergone many changes and we are still looking for a more permanent home, but one thing hasn’t changed— our commitment to practicing together.

Thank you for continuing to support Ashtanga Nashville by showing up to practice.“ - Shana and Derek // .i.joe.yogi

Tue/Thur - WeHo Snap Center // 1224 Martin St
