Starting with Sun Salutations, the sequence then moves into standing poses, which constitute the warm-up part of the practice. The Primary Series consists of seated forward bending poses and twists with a few backbends at the end. The sequence then moves to the cool down poses, consisting of inversions, cross-legged sitting poses and pranayama. Postures are held for 5 breaths and there is no rest in-between the poses. It is a moving meditatation coordinating breath with movement and meditating on breath in poses. Many more poses are practiced in both Ashtanga and Vinyasa, then in Hatha style classes. This is a more vigorous practice than other traditional approaches.

People are moving at their own pace and practicing the poses that they can do (always in the same order) and come and leave at any time during the practice. M/T/W mornings are Mysore practice.
