1.) Ashtanga Yoga is a rigorous style of yoga that follows a specific sequence of poses.
2.) Bikram Yoga is held in heated rooms follows the same series of 26 poses.
3.) Hatha Yoga is a generic term and applied to classes that teach postures. Hatha yoga can be a great introduction if you're nervous about trying a class.
4.) Hot Yoga is very similar to Bikram Yoga in the sense that you will be practicing in a heated room however, Hot Yoga may deviate slightly from the Bikram sequence which is why they call themselves something different.
5.) Restorative Yoga is a great way to relax. You will likely do passive poses with the assistance of blocks, blankets, and bolsters so you can experience the benefits of each pose with minimal effort. These classes can be more rejuvenating than a nap!
6.) Vinyasa Yoga is a great class if you don't want to stick to the same old routine every day as it won't follow the same sequence every class. You can expect a movement intensive class that offers smooth transition from pose to pose.
