Full and New Moon days are days of rest in Ashtanga Yoga.
Why?
Water covers 70% of the planet earth;
Human beings are about 65% water.
The water on earth is affected by the phases of the moon, as seen in the ocean's tides; in the same way, humans are affected energetically. Ashtanga yogis can respect the natural flows of the body by observing the moon days.
Schedule
Should an Ashtanga class fall on a moon day, the class will be a workshop or vinyasa flow class instead of an Ashtanga class.
