What is Power Yoga?
Power Yoga, also known as Vinyasa Flow Yoga, is a modern style of yoga that draws primarily upon the Ashtanga
tradition. You might think of Power Yoga as "freestyle" Ashtanga. Whereas Ashtanga classes are taught according
to a strict sequence of poses as established by K. Pattabhi Jois, Power Yoga classes offer a looser interpretation of
the yoga asanas (postures), allowing students to explore asanas from all six Ashtanga series, as well as many fun
variations and modifications. A typical class will go a little something like this.
What are the benefits of doing yoga?
People tend to get many different things out of yoga, depending on their personality and the type(s) of yoga they
practice. Power/Vinyasa Flow Yoga in particular promotes good cardiovascular health, muscular toning, flexibility,
core strength, balance, and a healthy body image/weight. People who practice this type of yoga also report an
increased ability to focus, reduced stress levels, and better sleep.
Do I need to be flexible to do yoga?
Flexibility is NOT a prerequisite for starting a yoga practice. Power Yoga in particular is about strength and
flexibility, and you will develop both as you continue to practice.
