What style of yoga do I choose?

You've finally decided to do yoga and you google "yoga studio", you find it, go to the site, take a look at who they are, where they are, and then the course times....

PANIC!!!

there are many times and that's fine, but each lesson has a different name!!!

And now how do I understand what to choose???

“Yoga is only one, which can express itself in different ways”

A rough classification aims to distinguish them into:

DYNAMIC STYLES: vinyasa, dynamic yoga, ashtanga

STATIC STYLES: hatha, yin, hatha&pranayama, gentle yoga, simple yoga

While KUNDALINI can be considered a discipline that has both a static and a dynamic part.

Here is our guide to find the right course for you.

The different styles of yoga

Hatha Yoga

Static yoga style, where each single position is performed separately, and held for a suitable period of time to become aware of it; during the class the correct alignment of the body and the method of execution are explained with any variations based on the student's physical possibilities. The lesson based on the flow of breath leads to greater body awareness, improving flexibility and strength; We will also practice breathing techniques useful for managing situations of stress and/or anxiety, creating a state of energetic relaxation.

Ashtanga Yoga

Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic yoga style, although it arrived in the West in the 1970s, it finds its origins in more remote periods.

Its origins are not entirely clear, the father of this style of yoga was Master Sri K.Pattabhi Jois, who brought to light a style of yoga from ancient traditions.

Pattabhi Jois popularized Ashtanga Yoga, and codified it into 6 sequences of increasing difficulty (primary, intermediate, advanced A,B,C); he was responsible for training the most internationally renowned teachers.

All the teachings that have come to us from Pattabhi Jois derive from his teacher Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, who in his teachings brought to light a very ancient style of yoga, whose therapeutic effects determined its spread like wildfire throughout the world.
