Tewkesbury Yoga teaches a Hatha style of yoga using a method that is known as `Viniyoga`, this is a very traditional practice with a strong emphasis on use of the breath. It`s a very mindful practice matching breath with movement and can be described as a slow practice in comparison to other styles.

This approach was taught by T Krishnamacharya and his son T.K.V Desikachar both names that are highly respected and revered in the yoga world.The word `Viniyoga` translates as `Appropriate Application` which indicates that care and consideration is taken to match the techniques to the individual student.

Within a group class setting some student could be working differently and independently to the rest of the group this could be because they are accessing the posture in a way that is suitable for their particular anatomical strengths or weaknesses – one size does not fit all in these classes, modifications and variations are actively encouraged to help develop or protect each student’s needs.

Viniyoga Classes uses a mixture of dynamic and static asana work giving the student an opportunity to experience the `Function and Feel` of a posture, time is taken to make sure students are accessing the posture in the correct way to avoid injury, often this opportunity maybe over looked in the faster styles.
