In this dynamic style, you will need to focus on movement, breath, and instructions. All of this will bring you to the present moment and restore your calm. The classes are invigorating and challenging, ideal for anyone looking to stay healthy, gain flexibility and strength, and most importantly, reconnect with themselves.

Power Vinyasa is a dynamic style developed in the 90s in the USA, largely derived from Ashtanga Yoga by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. Unlike Ashtanga, it is a flexible style, allowing teachers creativity to create sequences that are different in each class. Our Sadhana Power Vinyasa sequence, from Sadhana Yoga School, has also taken the best from other styles like Hatha Yoga or Dharma Yoga.

Postures are worked fluidly by connecting them with movements in sync with the breath, which allows us to transform our energy like a dynamo. But there are also moments of holding postures to create awareness of the body, mental state, and the benefits these provide.

Additionally, various options are always offered for each posture. This allows everyone to practice the same sequence at the same time but with the possibility of adapting postures to any body, respecting the limits of each practitioner.

Physically, this practice can work the entire body or focus on a specific area, whether it's core strength, legs, chest opening, or hips, as well as progressive work in extending the breath.

Spiritually, we always suggest an honest and generous intention in each practice, we always make some mention of a specific yama or niyama or visualize certain energy channels. All of this awakens in the practitioner a curiosity to continue evolving spiritually on the path of yoga and, above all, to identify it as a spiritual practice, not just a physical one. It is only then that yoga transcends.

In terms of practice, we try to inspire each practitioner so that they gradually commit to their own daily practice.
