What Is Ashtanga Yoga?
Ashtanga Yoga is a structured, flowing style of yoga built around linked postures and steady breathing. Sessions commonly run 60 to 90 minutes and often include repeated sun salutations, standing series, balances, seated postures, core control, and a finishing sequence, which makes it more physically demanding than slower yoga styles.
