Viniyoga is an approach to yoga in which breath initiates and guides movement, focusing on movement of the spine. In Viniyoga, postures are practiced dynamically and statically to build flexibility and strength with careful attention to sequencing. The form of the postures and the breath are adapted to meet the practitioner’s needs. Depending on the needs of the practitioner, Viniyoga makes use of additional yoga tools, such as pranayama (breathing practices) and meditation (mindfulness practices). Viniyoga promotes clarity of mind and a feeling of well-being. It is suitable for everyone, from beginners to experienced practitioners.
