Modalities of Yoga
For each purpose, a different class. For all classes, the same purpose: self-knowledge.
Ashtanga Vinyasa (Mysore Style)
Through a fixed sequence of postures which are structured in series, Ashtanga Vinyasa is designed for a dynamic practice, intense and fluid. The classes in Mysore style are not formally taught; the students are oriented by the teacher individually, and are encouraged to memorize the sequence.
Recommended for all levels of practitioners.

Classic & flow
This practice presents the fusion between Classic Yoga and Vinyasa Flow, also known as Hatha Vinyasa Yoga.

Vinyasa Flow
This practice is characterized by the synchronization between breathing and movement, and is composed of asanas (postures) in fluid and dynamic sequences of short duration. In general, it is a vigorous approach to yoga.

Vinyasa & Alignment
A Vinyasa practice that emphasizes the importance of breathing and alignment. The adjustments are given special attention, aiming at awareness and deepening in the execution of the asanas (postures). It is also a vigorous approach to yoga, but less dynamic and fluid than Vinyasa Flow.
