Core power yoga is the Western version of the Indian Ashtanga Yoga. The term was was bestowed by Beryl Bender Birch, an Ashtanga Yoga teacher. It was brought to the West by followers of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, a renowned Sanskrit scholar, who inspired Western Yogis with his Ashtanga Yoga Style and philosophies.

There are three programs in Power Yoga. “Core Power” is designed to strengthen the abdominals and back and includes both abs-focused Vinyasa power yoga poses and variations of muscle-toning moves. “Unlocking Athletic Power” will develop flexible strength with an emphasis on abs, back, hips and pelvis. “Soul of Strength”, on the other hand, is a fast-moving power yoga program with a distinct “mid-body” emphasis and some very challenging moves.

Yoga sessions are done in a heated room and composed of different cardiovascular exercises intended to develop strength and flexibility, increase stamina, improve the ability to focus, release tensions and remove toxins through sweating.

Core Power Yoga practice also requires the execution of yoga poses. Poses are done at a fast pace, some poses are even held longer than the required five breaths. This practice can increase physical endurance and the ability to focus on any task for a long time without breaking concentration.
