Vinyasa yoga, marked by its flowing, fast-paced movements, has a dedicated following of yogis. Unlike the other varieties of practice, Vinyasa-style classes keep students moving through a series of poses, done on each side, connected with a “Vinyasa.” Poses are held for a shorter period, and each,h class is different from the first.
Vinyasa yoga practitioners have quirks that are unique to their style.
Here are 13 signs you’re into Vinyasa yoga.
