Ashtanga Yoga is a popular yoga style and so there are a lot of yoga courses to choose from.

Read on to find out the best certification courses and destinations for Ashtanga teacher training retreats.

Ashtanga Yoga is a dynamic style of yoga that performs the exact same poses in the same specific sequence in each and every class.

The ultimate goal of Ashtanga is the purification of both body and mind and the practice has a strong sense of purpose and discipline.

Ashtanga means "eight limbs" in Sanskrit, which refers to the eight limbs of yoga as described in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.

There is a strong connection to the essence of traditional yoga in Ashtanga.

Poses are referred to in Sanskrit, there is no music or deviance from style, and those drawn to Ashtanga are often interested in pranayama and yoga philosophy.

Vinyasa Yoga stems from Ashtanga and includes many of the same poses you will find in an Ashtanga sequence.

Ashtanga classes may be taught as a led series by a teacher which is more suited to beginners, or 'Mysore style' where students move through their own individual self-practice.

Ashtanga teachers spend time teaching assists and adjustments to help you get deeper into postures.

Students often develop a close student-teacher relationship and may practice together for many years.

So you can see why choosing the right Ashtanga Yoga Certification course is important for you.
