On the outside looking in, Ashtanga Yoga is a very physically demanding Yoga practice. It moves at a fast pace, there are lots of strengthening poses, and it asks you to do lots of poses you may of never even thought were possible.
Physically, it has a cardio aspect to it with its fast pace movement, and you will gain strength and flexibility faster than any other yoga practice I've seen.
There are a lot of challenging poses, but also poses that are just fun to try and may bring out the 5 year old in you!
Internally, since this is such a challenging practice, it forces you to go deeper inside your body and really feel what is happening.
It activates your nervous system and teaches you how to stay with uncomfortable feelings. It brings up emotions you may of not even realized you had so you can sit with them and let them go.
It truly transforms you into your inner most deeply truest version of yourself.
Keep practicing friends!
