Ashtanga Vinyasa – John Scott

John Scott explains Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. This is a system of yoga popularized by K. Pattabhi Jois and is often promoted as a modern-day form of classical Indian yoga.

The length of one inhale or one exhale dictates the length of time spent transitioning between postures. Poses are then held for a predefined number of breaths.
