Ashtanga Yoga Morjim is dedicated to the traditional Mysore-style Ashtanga Yoga system. The shala is nestled under coconut palm trees on the Bhakti Sanctuary - a small effort committed to the protection of animals, with a focus on abandoned cows and water buffalos. It sits on ancestral land of five generations in Goa, India and is an homage to a simple life.
