I wanted to separate the old Ashtanga videos out from the previous post on Ashtanga history so I can link to them separately from the new Ashtanga History page at the top of the blog, perhaps give the videos a page of their own at the top as well.
Part of a project to improve the availability of resources that have become buried away over the years of blogging.
A quick introduction to each the videos for now but will hunt around for the info I have scattered here and there about the particular videos; who's in them, how they came about etc. feel free to add any extra info in comments and I'll add them to the videos.
Looking forward to any other suggestions and links for old videos to include.
Blogger has a tendency to drop videos and it can take a few attempts to keep all the Videos intact, do come back later if you see a description without the video.
