Ashtanga Yoga is an ancient system of Yoga that was taught by Vamana Rishi in the Yoga Korunta. This text was imparted to Sri T. Krishnamacharya in the early 1900’s by his Guru Rama Mohan Brahmachari, and was later passed down to Pattabhi Jois during the duration of his studies with Krishnamacharya, beginning in 1927.

The following are aspects that Pattabhi Jois emphasizes as the main components of Ashtanga Yoga.

Vinyasa
Vinyasa means breathing and movement system. For each movement, there is one breath.

Tristhana:
This means the three places of attention or action: posture, breathing system and looking place.

The six poisons:
A vital aspect of internal purification that Pattabhi Jois teaches relates to the six poisons that surround the spiritual heart

This forms the practical and philosophic basis of Ashtanga Yoga as taught by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois.Now taught by his Grandson Guruji R Sharath Jois.
