Ashtanga Yoga
Ashtanga Yoga is a rigorous and structured style that follows a specific sequence of postures. It involves a set series of asanas that are performed in the same order every time. This style emphasizes building internal heat, strength, and purification through synchronized breath and movement. Ashtanga is ideal for those who appreciate discipline and consistency in their practice and are looking for a physically demanding workout.
Vinyasa Yoga
Vinyasa Yoga, often referred to as “flow” yoga, is characterized by a dynamic sequence of movements synchronized with breath. Each pose transitions smoothly into the next, creating a fluid and rhythmic practice. Vinyasa classes can vary in intensity and pace, offering a creative and energetic experience. This style is excellent for those who enjoy movement and want to build strength, endurance, and flexibility.
Hatha Yoga
Hatha Yoga is one of the most widely practiced styles and focuses on physical postures (asanas) and breath control (pranayama). It is considered the foundation of all yoga styles and emphasizes balance and alignment. Hatha Yoga classes are usually slower-paced, making them ideal for beginners. They aim to prepare the body for deeper spiritual practices by enhancing strength, flexibility, and relaxation.
