Happy February!!!!!
"tasting each mouthful, feeling each breath, listening to each song, being awake for each moment as it unfolds"
There are many varieties of yoga. If you're new to yoga, you may have to try a few classes first to find a style and instructor that suits you.
Popular types of yoga include:
-
Ashtanga: Try Ashtanga yoga for a challenging physical practice
-
Anusara: This style of hatha yoga integrates heart-opening poses with principles of bodily alignment
-
Bikrams: Named after its founder, Bikram Choudury, and practiced in a heated studio
-
Hot: A series of poses practiced in a heated studio. Be prepared to sweat!
-
Hatha: A physical yoga that pays close attention to the breath and moves more slower between poses than Ashtanga or Power yoga.
-
Iyengar: A style of Hatha yoga that emphasizes precise alignment of poses, sometimes using yoga props like straps or blocks
-
Kundalini: Kundalini yoga can include chanting, hand positions, breathing techniques, combined with a sometimes vigorous aerobic type workout
-
Power/Flow/Vinyasa: These forms are derived from Ashtanga yoga, and are flowing, dynamic and physically challenging styles of yoga
-
Pre- and Post-Natal: Gentle Hatha yoga is ideal for pregnant women to help lower stress, and reduces swelling and back and leg pain
-
Yin: Streeeeeeeeeeetch it out in pigeon pose in this slower style of yoga that targets the connective tissue of the hips, pelvis and lower spine
