Asana

Asana is the most visible part of the Ashtanga Yoga practice and is commonly known as the "Yoga position".

The Asana is the static pause between the flow of the Vinyasas. An break for normally 5 to 8 Ujjayi breaths, (Marked in the Asana-Vinyasa-Guide as "BR"), sometimes longer (If spezified in the Asana-Vinyasa-Guide with an number).

Every Asana has its unique energy, its emotion, its teaching... The Yogi says an Asana hides the experience of an whole live. An experience far beyond what words can catch. Just by constant practice you may understand it and make it yours.
