What is ashtanga yoga?
Ashtanga yoga is a physically demanding style of yoga that involves a sequence of poses, or asanas, that are performed in a specific order. The practice emphasizes the connection between breath and movement, and is often taught in the Mysore style.
The name: The Sanskrit word Ashtanga translates to “Eight-limbs”, referring to the Eight-limbs of yoga as described in the Yoga Sutras. The eight limbs of yoga are yama, niyama, asana, pranayama, pratyahara, dharana, dhyana, and samadhi.
