His teaching style combines traditional Ashtanga yoga with the personal therapeutic needs of every student. He provides an individual approach to Mysore style and is known for the attention he pays both to the beginner and advanced practitioner.

His personal practice includes the Advanced “C” series. He studied regularly at the Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute of Mysore, where he completed the Advanced “B” series in 1998.

For those who do not know Matthew, we invite you to read this extract and visit his web page at:
“In 1990 I began a Zen Shiatsu course which took 3 years to complete. At the end of the latter course I completed an Oki-do Yoga Teacher Training that was being offered by the same organisation. During this course I learned anatomy and physiology, Corrective Physical Therapy, Transcendental Meditation and Meridian Theory as applied to Yoga postures. I completed my first teacher training in 1993. During this course I began to explore both Iyengar Yoga and Ashtanga Yoga and was somewhat torn between deciding to do an Iyengar Teacher Training in Poona, India, or going to Mysore and studying with Sri K. P. Jois. I chose the latter.”
Limited booking. Early bird discounts soon to be published.
The global scenario of financial crisis we are living has roots in other very complex issues, like the environmental crisis. In our near future climate change and the availability of fossil fuels will define the models of food production. Unfortunatelly, in many places, hunger is already an unjust reallity.
At Los Amigos we try to solve this global issue locally. We have a food production programme that operates permanently, with which we can satisfy part of our needs and offer to our visitors fresh produce and dairy of the best quality.
If you are interested in knowing more about this subject, we invite you to participate in one of the related courses we offer, and visit OXFAM site. Here you can find the map they have developed to identify the zones that are already under serious hunger issues.
This month is special in many ways. Its the time when we rise an altar for our Loved Dead ones, to recieve their blessings and to remember them. Its also special for night sky observation. This month Jupiter will continue to regin, while Saturn and Mars will rise before dawn. If lucky enough, we might even enjoy the Leonid Meteor Shower.
Greetings from the Los Amigos Night Sky Club.
