 | | In practice Ashtanga is a dynamic form of Yoga which works to strengthen and realign the body and to increase vitality by improving the functioning of all the body's systems, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive etc. These physical benefits in turn improve one's stata of mind, bringing about a more relaxed and stress free life. |
 | | The system of Ashtanga vinyasa, the practice of yoga postures in a flowing sequence, with each movement co-ordinated with the breath, was elucidated by Sri K.Pattabhi Jois and his Guru, Krishnamacharya, from an ancient Sanskrit document called Yoga Karunta. |
 | | This gave instructions for the practice of yoga postures(asana), the benefits of these asana, and the precise method of breathing and movement to be used in performing them, (vinyasa). |
