What kind of yoga is right for me?

There are many different ways to practice yoga, some are simple and others are more complex. Hatha is the most common style of yoga that you might expect to be taught if you were to join a class at a beginners level. Hatha yoga is a well rounded style that focuses equally on breath, body, and mind. As such, when taking Hatha yoga classes you will be training your body by learning new yoga poses which will build strength in important areas of the body, and training your mind and breath by meditating whilst practising deep breathing methods. This yoga style is perfect for beginners as the classes are often lead by an instructor who will be teaching you and talking you through each step as you go.

Ashtanga is a more advanced style of yoga. Known also as 8 limbed yoga, Ashtanga is a dynamic and vigorous form of exercise which requires a bit more experience to master. It is recommended to be a daily practise, in which the students work on a series of movements that flow from one to the other. You could expect this to be a more individual experience as, whilst the classes are still lead by an instructor, students work through the particular set of movements they are focussing on by themselves, with the instructor there to give advice and pointers where needed.

Whatever level you are at there is a style of yoga that will suit your abilities perfectly, allowing you to feel comfortable and at ease as you join the wider community of yoga lovers!
