Vinyāsa in sanskrit means - synchronized movement with breath in a special way. Vinyasa like ashtanga, holds the poses for 5 breaths before smoothly flowing to the next pose. Building up the practise to a dyanmic pose. Mixed with moments of Hatha, where we hold the poses a little longer than the fast past of Hatha - the teachers mix the 2 depending on the students levels.

Hatha hold the poses a little longer than Vinyasa and not as fast as Vinyasa. Mixed with Yin poses its a beautiful way to stretch into the day.

Yoga Etiquette
What is Yoga?
To be United and be in Harmony with our Mind, with our Emotions and our bodies.
“Yogas Chitta Vritti Nirodha,” is stated in the First of the 198 verses
Yoga Sutra 1.2. The heart of what Patanjali is addressing here is our consciousness as human beings.
The Sanskrit phrase “yogas chitta vritti nirodha” is commonly translated as
“yoga is the stilling or controlling of the modifications or fluctuations of the mind.”
Word for word translation of yoga sutra 1.2
-
Yogas — To yoke, to join, to unite
-
Chitta — Mind, consciousness
-
Vritti — Modifications, fluctuations
-
Nirodha — Controlling, quieting of
Other popular translations
-
Yoga is the control of thought-waves in the mind. —Swami Prabhavananda
-
The restraint of the modifications of the mind-stuff is Yoga. —Swami Satchidananda
-
Yoga is the ability to direct the mind exclusively toward an object and sustain that direction without any distractions. —T. K. V. Desikachari
Yoga Etiquette
1.) Be Mindful - Be Aware of others, other than yourself, with Respect.
Respect yourself
Respect others
Respect Environment
2.) Clothing - Cover your private parts - NO bikinis or exposing clothing- Yoga is about dropping your ego. Leave Shoes DOWN Stairs - Not in the way where people walk. We never practice Yoga with our shoes on. Shoes bring in dirt onto the floor and we will lie on that floor and inhale the dirt. Yoga is never done with shoes or socks on.
3) Silence - Mouna in Sanskrit. Come in to the space with Awareness, softly and quietly. Yoga is about stilling the mind; be mindful of your neighbours and the world around us. Some Yogis are arriving early 10 minutes and meditating, Respect the Sacred Space and learn to Still your mind and be more mindful, concsious and aware, this will help you listen to the instructions given by the teacher and focus on your practice for you to get the "de-stressing" benfits of your yoga class. No talking, as it is disrespectful to the others, yourself and the teacher.
4.) Empty Stomach - this means, No Coffee, Food, Snacks - with respect your stomach should empty 2-3 hours before with no heavy food. It is ok to have a coffee 30 minutes before, just not in the Yoga Shala. Of course you can bring your water.
5.). Cell Phones on Silent. With Respect ask the teacher for permission and other students if they dont mind being filmed in your videos and photos. Most people say yes - just every so often there's a No and this life. Respect and Accept.
6.) Respect Yourself - Respect Others - Respect the Space, the Environment around you, The Kingdom of Thailand and the Thai Culture and the Earth.
7.) Honor Your Bodies Daily Limits, knowing this too shall pass. Some days you have incredible energy and some days you have low energy and wake up with sore shoulder or something else.... Be in that moment, drop your ego and remember you are capable, surrendering to allowing the body to heal and enjoy.
8) Drop Your EGO in the sea to chill .... and leave your shoes down stairs, come up stairs get your yoga mat, some cushions/pillow, a strap and a block. Sit up comfortably and Focus on your breath equal inhale equal exhale - think TRANQUILITY and Relaxation.
9.). After the "Asana" Practice (Sanskrit word for "comfortable pose/position") the Miraculous capability of the body to Self-Heal is only truly possible if we take the short time to "rest and re-charge" Welcome to ... Shivaasana translated into "corpse pose" forget about everything and surrendre - relax - freedom! When you wake-up your should feel refreshed and Re-Born.
10.) Namaste - The Divine Sacred Soul Self, in me Honours and Bows to the Divine Sacred Soul Self in you.
