Ashtanga Yoga, taught Mysore style is one of the few Yoga styles emphasizing on self-practice. But even for most ashtangis it is a motivation booster to practice in their teacher’s shala, within the asthangi family, instead of practicing by themselves.

  1. Really very useful information on yoga. keep up this brilliant work. I’m glad I found this blog. Thank you
