Ashtanga Yoga: Three Asana Levels

The poses in Ashtanga yoga are sectioned into three levels. Each level increases in difficulty. The primary series, Yoga Chikitsa, detoxifies and aligns the body. The second series, and more intermediate, is Nadi Shodhana, which opens the energy channel and prepares the nervous system. Sthira Bhaga, the advanced series, combines the entire practice, spiritually and physically.
