The Practice of Ashtanga Yoga at Dhyana Yoga North Brunswick, NJ

Ashtanga

At Dhyana Yoga, we’re passionate about creating a space where students can explore the depth and discipline of traditional Ashtanga Yoga. This ancient practice, rooted in breath, movement, and mindfulness, has been a cornerstone of the yoga world for decades and continues to offer countless benefits to both the body and mind.

What is Ashtanga Yoga?

Ashtanga Yoga is a dynamic style of yoga that links breath (Ujjayi) with a structured sequence of poses (asanas). This practice is often referred to as a “moving meditation”. It helps practitioners build strength, flexibility, and mental focus while moving through a series of postures in a specific, flowing order. The beauty of Ashtanga lies in its repetition and progression—the same sequence is practiced, allowing the student to refine and deepen their practice over time.

Unlike other yoga styles that may vary from class to class, Ashtanga follows a set structure. Starting with Sun Salutations, moving into standing poses, seated poses, and closing postures, the sequence builds heat and purifies the body. It’s a physically challenging yet incredibly rewarding practice that promotes both physical endurance and mental resilience.
