There is an interesting fact: clichy Namachaya, an Indian yoga master, is a master of Ashtanga Yoga, Iyengar Yoga and Winnie Yoga, but the practice points he teaches to the three yoga schools are quite different.
Ashtnaga Ashtanga Yoga ranks first in almost all introductions of yoga categories, because it is ancient, primitive, rigorous and challenging, and it is the daily practice of many professionals, and it is also the origin of many popular yoga today.
Its founder is Pattabhi Joyce, a master in Mysore, South India. Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic and orderly yoga practice method, which links exercise with breathing. It can quickly enhance the endurance and flexibility of the body, but it is a challenging sport for beginners. Suitable for people who love sports or challenges.
At present, Master Joyce of Pattabhi is taught by his grandson Sharath in Mysore's school. He is a rare yogi. He has a profound and rigorous practice and a very yoga heart. So far, I don't want to invite Salas to China, because I don't think there are too many strict practices in China. His lectures are few, mostly in Sanskrit. I like his class very much. Because my mind can keep up with his number, I have a very focused meditation effect (if I don't know his body number, his lessons will be much less, but there are not many people in China who know his body number temporarily). His rhythm is very stable and calm, but he doesn't give much information in class, which is suitable for skilled practitioners, so I invited his uncle, the son of Joyce in Pattabhi, for a long life. Because he lives in America, his teaching method is international. It is said that his teaching methods are different from those of his father and his nephew sharratt, which can give more practical information. When the atmosphere in Ashtanga, China is mature, we can consider inviting sharratt, the traditional prince of Ashtanga.

Bikram Bickram style, founded by Bikram Choudhurych, is the new favorite of the fitness industry in the past 10 years. The classroom temperature is about 40 degrees, and there are 26 basic postures.

However, many people insist on doing high-temperature yoga, and many people don't like to practice it. However, they contacted yoga practice through high-temperature yoga and embarked on the road of yoga.
Vitality yoga
Founder Brian Kester

Brian Keith has the appearance of a star. He has practiced Ashtanga for many years. Ashtanga is the only early practice he mentioned in his self-introduction on the website. He also studied as Pattabhi Jois in Mysore in his early days, but his point of view is not to practice yoga too much, but to listen to the body's feelings. Brian Kester also studied with other influential masters. He mixed all kinds of yoga knowledge he learned with his own understanding and then passed it on to modern Americans. As a result, he became a big hit. After all, people who like rigorous and traditional things still account for only a small part. Most people are more receptive to popular things, which requires a person with the same culture and views as most people to be a bridge of communication. Bryan Kest and other founders of the third generation yoga acted as these bridges. They let more people accept yoga and benefit it. They may be criticized as "lax yogis", but they have made great contributions to spreading yoga to the society.
Jivamukti Jiva Mukti
Founder David and Salon
www.jivamuktiyoga.com
The idea of Jivamukti Yoga was founded by David and Sharon in 1984.
David and Sharon have been ashtanga practitioners for many years, and David is a senior certified coach registered by Pattabhi Jois. They think that western practitioners need to know more about yoga besides practicing postures. The environment of modern practitioners has changed and information is needed to change and surpass it.
Jiwamukti means to be liberated in life. Wamukti comes from Sanskrit and is used to describe enlightenment or divine revelation. They named this yoga practice Jiwamukti because they wanted students to remember the ultimate goal of the practice. The purpose of yoga is not only posture, but also to make people reach a clear state of mind through intense physical and mental training.
They enhance the educational significance of practice and let students know the source of these ideas. Each class has a theme, including: Indian singing, reading, scripture reference, music (from Beatles to Moby), storytelling, posture sequencing and yoga breathing exercises. Jivamukti Jivamukti is a very serious and responsible faction, and the general Jivamukti students have higher philosophical literacy than most yoga instructors. Because their purpose is to let students practice yoga posture and really learn the meaning of yoga.

Anusara Yoga was founded by John Flanders on 1997. John Flanders is an authorized instructor in Iyengar and a powerful Hada Yoga School. Anusara Yoga combines the "essential goodness" and the "principle of cosmic harmony" inherent in the tantric yoga concept.
Anusara Yoga is the youngest school in the third generation of yoga, but it is the fastest growing one. Its remarkable popularity is attributed to John Flanders' most acceptable way of interpreting yoga, his team's successful commercial promotion and its inspiring philosophy. This concept can be simply summarized as "inner joy", which is devoted to exploring the power of "goodness" that exists in everyone and everything.
