Questions about
yoga in Portland?
 
Here is a guide
to practice styles:
 
Hatha Yoga
Well, this term actually refers to any of the styles employing the poses of the yoga tradition and not to a particular teaching method, pace or syllabus. All of our classes are hatha yoga in one form or another.
 
Ashtanga
A vigorous, flowing practice taught in a particular sequential order. Ashtanga is a challenging practice that gradually builds strength and flexibility over time.
 
Power Yoga
Flow Yoga
Vinyasa Yoga
These are all offshoots of the ashtanga system and whatever Portland yoga studio you go to will have their own idea of pacing and intensity. All are more improvisational than ashtanga but use many of the same elements: ujjayi breathing, the ashtanga style sun salutations and the idea of a flow between poses with vinyasa.
 
Yin Yoga
Long holds in supported poses characterize this style.
 
Kundalini Yoga
A unique blend of chanting, meditation, breath of fire and other pranayamas, along with asana sequences designed for specific results.
