Core
power yoga is an energetic yoga exercise that
physically and mentally challenges to help connect
to inner power without stopping and accompanied by a
heated, climate controlled Vinyasa. It heals,
detoxifies and stimulates the body and mind through
balance and intention.
Power yoga has created a dynamic, challenging
program that combines strength, sweat and
spirituality. It recognizes power in different
levels; first is the physical power which develops
the body?s strength and improve health; second is
the mental power or the will to concentrate on the
practice; and last the spiritual power which is the
power behind the physical and mental power.
Core power yoga is the Western version of the Indian
Ashtanga Yoga. The term was was given by Beryl
Bender Birch, an Ashtanga Yoga teacher. It has been
brought to the west by followers of Sri K. Pattabhi
Jois, a renowned Sanskrit scholar who inspired
Western Yogis with his Ashtanga Yoga Style and
philosophies.
There are three programs in power yoga. Core Power
is designed to strengthen abdominals and back and
includes both abs-focused Vinyasa power yoga poses
and variations of muscle-toning moves. Unlocking
Athletic Power will develop flexible strength with
an emphasis on abs, back, hips and pelvis. Soul of
Strength on the other hand is a fast-moving power
yoga program with a distinct mid-body emphasis and
some very challenging moves.
Yoga sessions are done in a heated room and composed
of different cardiovascular exercises intended to
develop strength and flexibility, increase stamina,
improves the ability to focus, release tensions and
remove toxins through sweating.
Core power yoga practice also requires the execution
of yoga poses. Poses are done in a fast pace, some
poses are even held longer than the required five
breaths. This practice can increase physical
endurance and ability to focus on any task for a
long time without breaking the concentration.
