Mastering Primary

Welcome

I have been close to and far from the Ashtanga primary series for thirty years and never finished it. I am someone who consistently keeps starting at the beginning and I don’t get to where I intended to go.

This site is about starting once again, but this time getting to a sense of mastery, which I think is the intended destination. To see what is there.

In doing this I will share out loud, so that if the journey is of value, we can do it again but better and maybe faster.

I will tackling mastering the capabilities most adults assume they will have figured out by some age but rarely do — shipping good work with intention, being healthy, building prosperity, finding good friends, and mastering self.

I will do this without naming anyone, including me.

To master in a meaningful way, which is to change and not just do, I require a playbook. I’m convinced that the most practical, comprehensive, and time tested playbook is yoga. You will therefore see it embedded in my writing - let’s see how it works!

I also will take on completing primary series, the one I never finsished after thousands of hours of practice, as the initial proving ground.
