Different Forms of Yoga

By Sienna Nalin


With yoga there are of course many forms of it. If you did not know that, now you will be informed of the many types of yoga. You just may find one that suits you.

Avid yoga goers of course have a certain type of yoga that they attend. That is just like some peoples moods are affected by the color of their yoga mat. All of these things can have an effect on how well you will be able to have a good yoga experience. Hopefully this list of yoga styles will help you find one best for you.

Restorative Yoga - If you really need to relax, and just calm down, restorative yoga is a good style of yoga. This form of yoga is all about relaxing and just lying on blankets for about an hour.

Power Yoga - This type of yoga will definitely give your body a work out. It deals a lot with strength. Not only would you become strong with this form of yoga, but it also will help you become flexible.

Iyengar Yoga - For those of you out there that are used to a schedule and knowing how everything works and is going, this style of yoga is definitely for you. This form of yoga deals with the attention to detail that most forms of yoga do not. This would definitely be my type of yoga since I consider myself to be very OCD (color coordinated closet).

Bikram Hot Yoga - There is no question that anyone who voluntarily signs up for an hour and a half of yoga in extreme temperatures led by a militant instructor knows exactly what they want and are not afraid to go get it. Bikram yoga fans are routine oriented. Following the same set of 26 yoga poses in every single class, they don't do well with surprises or changes.

Kundalini Yoga - If you are all about the spirit and mind, this yoga is great for you. This style of yoga is good for those that are open to anything, a deep thinker and an individual at heart.
