If you are a beginner to yoga and looking for a slow-paced style, you should go with Hatha yoga. Hatha yoga is always practiced slowly, focusing on breathing techniques, holding physical postures, and proper alignment. Although this is not the only difference, Vinyasa yoga is a much faster and heavy-paced style that focuses on the breath to movements. In vinyasa, you hardly hold any posture; you can expect it to flow throughout the practice. If you are expecting something more challenging, vinyasa and ashtanga yoga are better options.
