Ashtanga Yoga Plus
Dr. med. Matthias Schmidt
Since 2010
Ashtanga Yoga in Königstein and online
Ashtanga Yoga is a dynamic and powerful form of Hatha Yoga. Postures (in Sanskrit: Āsana), which are precisely coordinated with the breathing, are linked to one another in a defined sequence in a flowlike fashion. Well-being and physical performance quickly improve.
Under the heading of Plus, I also offer
other elements of yoga (programme here), specifically:
- pranayama (special breathing techniques)
- meditation
- yoga philosophy, chanting and Sanskrit
as well as on-site and online assistance in coping with challenges in the personal and the professional arena, using:
- coaching and energy work
- family and systemic constellations (currently only in an individual setting).

Extracts from my blog
„Yogāvatāraṇam – The translation of Yoga” by Zoë Slatoff (book review)
Usually, when I take a picture of a book that I am reviewing, I try to use a pristine version of the book whenever possible. But, as you can see, in this case, it is different. The book came to my attention through an advertisement on...
What does Ashtanga Yoga mean – Nomen est omen or rather a misnomer?
The yoga style that I have been practicing for 13 years and teaching for 11 is nowadays known worldwide as Ashtanga Yoga. I fell in love with this style from the very start. Initially, the name was not important to me. However, I later started to...
