Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga:
During the practice of Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga, you combine three fundamental elements: breath, asana, and drishti. These elements require a high degree of focus and concentration, which helps to clear and calm the mind. Ashtanga yoga is a vigorous Hatha yoga practice that consists of six fixed series. It originated from the ancient text known as the “Yoga Kurunta” and is the source of popular Vinyasa, power, and flow styles in the West. If you’re interested in learning more about this practice, come and join Anandam Yoga School for their 100 hours Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training in Bali.
