Ashtanga Yoga, rooted in the ancient manuscript Yoga Korunta by Sage Vāmana Ṛṣi, is a powerful system of yogic practice revived in the 20th century by Sri T. Krishnamacharya and propagated by his student Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. The system is structured around a fixed sequence of asanas, breathing techniques, and drishti (gaze points), designed to cultivate inner awareness, physical strength, and mental clarity.
The term Ashtanga is derived from Sanskrit: Ashta (eight) and Anga (limb), referring to the Eight Limbs of Yoga outlined in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. This includes:

Vinyasa Yoga, derived from the Ashtanga tradition, is a creative, dynamic, and rhythmic form of yoga that links breath with movement. In Sanskrit, Vinyasa means “to place in a special way,” referring to the thoughtful sequencing of poses that seamlessly flow from one to another, often synchronized with inhalation and exhalation.
Vinyasa Yoga evolved to meet the needs of modern practitioners who desire variety, flexibility, and expressive movement, without compromising on physical or mental benefits.
