‘Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga’ is a Yoga tradition that was taught by Shri K. Pattabhi Jois. Hatha Yoga is one of the methods prescribed for attaining self realization.

Ashtanga reads as ‘ashta’ ‘anga’ where Ashta means eight and anga means limb. So it essentially is the eight folded path for self realization.
