Ashtanga vinyasa yoga led classWhile there are many forms of yoga seemingly one of a kind, Ashtanga Vinayasa Yoga is one such athletic form that poses certain challenges to individuals on a physical level. Originated in the city of Mysore, India - the man behind this style of yoga was late Sri K. Pattabhi Jois.
Also referred to as Ashtanga Yoga, this form of yoga is supposedly the energizing, flowing style that connects the body movement with one’s breath. This contemporary style of six series is deemed to be the finest blend of ancient philosophies and modern athletic practices
What Is Ashtanga Vinayasa Yoga?
Well, the meaning of ‘Ashtanga’ is eight limbs or branches, the purpose of which is to create an amalgamation among mind, body, and spirit. There are numerous principles that control the practice of Ashtanga yoga, including:
1. Breath - Postures are controlled for five to eight breaths or even more if it seems possible.
2. Drishti - There is an array of drishtis or gaze points, for every posture in the series.
3. Vinayasa - It is the breathing system that links every movement in the series with the breath.
4. Bandhas - This is the practice which must be performed with the ‘bandhas’, or body locks. It’s carried out to make sure that the breath seems right.
5. Daily Practice - It is recommended to undertake 6 days a week practice, with at least Saturday as the rest day. Even the days of the full and new moon should be considered the rest days. Women are advised not to practice Ashtanga Vinayasa Yoga during menstruation.
