The Soil Association A stanga Yoga Astanga Vinyassa Yoga or 'Power Yoga' as it is known in the States, is the original yoga. Heat is used as a method of purifying the body - getting rid of toxins by basically burning them.
Astanga yoga is VERY energetic, it involves instant activity and high aerobic energy levels.
There are about 40 different positions, each is held for five breaths and you go through them all in an hour and a half. It is all about continual movement, so it is fast paced, but one should not get out of breath. The breathing called 'ujjayi' is all controlled and should be steady. Astanga yoga is designed to increase flexibility, strength, balance and concentration by releasing , re-aligning the skeleton and detoxifying the body. Prices are 48 for an 8 week course and there are new courses ever 2 to 3 weeks.
