Vinyasa Yoga

Vinyasa Yoga is characterized by the dynamics of the asanas (physical exercises). The asanas are combined with breathing, resulting in a flowing, creative movement. In combination with pranayama (breathing exercises) and short meditations, it not only works on the physical level, but also involves the mind. This trains the mind and supports physical and mental health. With the build-up of energy, the human being is involved as a whole and helps to achieve more calm, focus, flexibility and change.
