Vinyasa Yoga

Vinyasa yoga is often described as a more dynamic form of yoga, where you move in a flow from position to position. Most often there is just one inhalation or exhalation between each position. There is a focus on building strength and you can feel your muscles.

As a beginner, it can be challenging to start with Vinyasa even if you are used to hard physical activity. In the flow, the teacher often gives short cues or uses yoga terms for the positions and does not guide the entire foundation and necessary adjustments. For example, downward facing dog can be said without guiding and explaining how to get into the position.
