Ashtanga Yoga

Ashtanga yoga is a challenging, athletic style yoga practice that follows a set sequence. In this modern-day form of traditional yoga, you will match your breath to each physical movement and will follow a specific sequence of yoga poses.

In an ashtanga yoga practice, you can expect to move at a fast pace and stay in a constant flow of movements. Ashtanga yoga is highly structured and very physically demanding. While this form of yoga is identical from day to day, there are some things you should know about it before you attempt this challenging form of yoga.
