Vinyasa is teaching and learning through a series of juxtapositions. One moment grasped holistically, deeply, reinvented as it is experienced in relation to the moment that came before it and the moment that comes after it.
"Vinyasa" means breath-synchronized movement. The breath is the heart of this discipline and links asana to asana in a precise order.

Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is the name given to the system of hatha yoga currently taught, in Mysore, South India, by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, a former student of Krishnamacharya.

As against Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga's rather athletic approach that involves Bandhas, Sivananda training is more concerned with frequent relaxation, and stresses the importance of full, yogic breathing.
