Viniyoga
Based on a Sanskrit word meaning differentiation or adaptation,
it should come as no surprise that viniyoga is the DIY of yoga.
Viniyoga is based on the teachings of T. Kristnamacharya and
T.K.V. Desikachar and is a very individualized yoga. Breathing
is combined with asanas that are modified to fit the needs,
interests and abilities of individual practitioners, with the
goal all the while being a balance of body, breath and mind.
This is truly yoga bending to you, as opposed to the other way
around (no pun intended... no, really).
American Viniyoga
Institute - AVI began sharing the teachings of yoga
and yoga therapy as Maui Yoga Therapy in 1983. It has
since then grown into an international community of
yoga professional educated by Gary Kraftsow in the spirit
of Viniyoga, and inspired by the teachings of T.K.V.
Desikachar and T. Krishnamacharya. AVI shares these
teachings in a rich array of professional training programs,
educational and experiential seminars and retreats in
the fields of health and fitness, therapy and self-care,
and personal transformation.
