Ashtanga Yoga Shala is a Brisbane yoga school focused on traditional Ashtanga practice, blending movement, breath, and concentration to support a steady, disciplined approach to wellbeing. It positions itself as Brisbane’s oldest Ashtanga school (serving the community for over 30 years) and runs classes from two locations: Paddington and Sunnybank.

New students typically start with the Step 1 Class Series, a guided introduction designed to build foundations such as sequencing, technique, and alignment, before progressing into Mysore-style classes (the traditional, self-paced format with individual instruction). Classes are led by Richard Clark, who has taught for over 25 years and trained under Iain Clark through an intensive teacher-training pathway
