Vinyasa is one of the most popular styles of Hatha yoga in the western world. The most common understanding of vinyasa is that it is a linking of asana together with the breath to create a flowing, fluid sequence. The Vinyasa krama approach integrates the mind, body and breath together to create a sense of Dharana/one-pointed concentration, in order to move closer to the aim of yoga, bliss state or Samadhi. We should think of it as a “moving mediation”, cleansing the physical body, building up our storehouse of prana (vital energy). The word krama means “succession” so a sequence is created, one asana after another with the breath as the thread.
