Annie Pace, having over 29 years of experience and receiving her Advanced B certification from Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, describes the structure of Ashtanga in three groups of sequences that total six individual series. The first series, The Primary Series, detoxifies and aligns the body. The Intermediate Series follows the The Primary Series and purifies the nervous system. The Advanced Series A, B, C, and D are four separate series that integrate strength and grace, requiring high levels of flexibility and humility.
The Mayo Clinic suggests that all types of yoga can be an effective way to manage stress and anxiety, which both have a significant impact on physical well-being. Adding yoga to an existing fitness regimen achieves potential stress reduction, increases fitness, manages chronic health problems, and enhances weight loss.
According to Maehle, because the complete practice of the eight limbs was not practical in daily life, Vedic Seer Vamana subsequently developed Ashtanga Yoga approximately 4000 years ago. Vamana’s adaptation allowed for the eight limbs of yoga to be practiced simultaneously. Ashtanga arrived in the modern world in 1948, through the teaching of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois.
Ashtanga Yoga is a dynamic form of yoga. Offering more movement and cardio intensity than the other more static yoga varieties, Ashtanga is an excellent option for a traditional cardiovascular centered workout, with the added benefits of increasing flexibility and strength. With equal focus on stamina, strength, and flexibility, the benefits of Ashtanga are a powerful addition to an overall fitness regimen.
For those who have previously practiced Ashtanga [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], David Swenson’s book, Ashtanga Yoga: The Practice Manual: An Illustrated Guide to Personal Practice, is a user-friendly resource. With over 650 photos, clear instructions, and commentary, the book is helpful in developing and maintaining an at-home Ashtanga practice.

Health Benefits of Ashtanga
Ashtanga classes are generally a set sequence of postures, or asanas, done uninterrupted from beginning to end. To perform asanas correctly, a student must incorporate the use of vinyasa and tristhana. Vinyasa is a pattern of breath and movement used to internally cleanse. Tristhana is the combination of posture, breathing, and gaze.
An Overview of Teaching Methods in Ashtanga Classes
Students must fully master the poses in each series before progressing to the next. Each successfully completed pose serves as a way to prepare the body for the next asana. Pace recommends that students learn Ashtanga through the teaching of a certified yoga instructor in a yoga studio. A class setting reduces risk to the body when put into unique and new asanas. Bill Counter from Yoga in Sacramento suggests that students practice Ashtanga six times a week. If that is not possible, he also notes that a consistent moderate practice of any style of yoga is better than an intense practice done inconsistently.
Ashtanga’s roots are with the ancient yoga sage Patanjali. In Greg Maehle’s book [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Ashtanga Yoga: Practice and Philosophy, Maehle describes Patanjali’s idea that yoga was to be broken into eight limbs in order “to get each individual back from wherever their current position is, back into contact with their heart.” The eight limbs of yoga include ethics, observances [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], body, breath, withdrawal, concentration, meditation, and union with the Divine.
