ASHTANGA

Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic, flowing style of yoga that connects movement with the breath.

Ashtanga yoga, is a style of yoga developed by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and T. Krishnamacharya in the 20th century. It is said to have originated from a system of Hatha yoga found in the ancient text, the "Yoga Korunta." Ashtanga, means “eight-limbed” in Sanskrit, and is described in The Yoga Sutras of Patañjali. In the Yoga Sutras, he describes Ashtanga Yoga as an eight-limbed path towards achieving Samadhi. Ashtanga yoga consists of six levels of seated poses and standing poses—or asanas—that increase in difficulty and do not vary: a Primary series, a Secondary series, and four additional advanced levels. Each practice begins and ends with five cycles of sun salutations.
