Yoga Styles For Men: Vinyasa

Now this style of yoga links your movements with your breath, with added focus on creating flowing postures that smoothly transition from one to the next. “Vinyasa” means “connection” in Sanskrit and each movement connects with either an inhale or an exhale.

Depending on the level, Vinyasa Yoga can be either gentle or quite strenuous. If you’re a beginner, look for a gentle flow or a level 1 class before moving on the higher levels.

There is no strict format or sequence of poses in a Vinyasa class, allowing for more creativity on the part of the teacher. Some classes are more spiritual, incorporating breath work, chanting and meditation, while others are more athletically oriented. The actual poses and difficulty level are very dependent upon the instructor, so if one class doesn’t suit you, try a different instructor.
