​

There are many reason Ashtanga Yoga is unique:

​

1. Enhancement of Flexibility & Strength - the only yoga practice that is aimed at developing strength and flexibility at the same time.

​

2. Importance of Self Practice - emphasises greatly on self practice.

​

3. Fast Physical Results - By regularly performing various Ashtanga positions on your closed cell yoga mat, it won’t take long before you notice the big changes in your body.

​

4. Observing the Moon Days - Ashtanga Yoga is one of the very few systems that follow the cycle of the moon.
