 union YOGA LOFT: ABOUT viniyoga
Viniyoga is a progressive approach, not a style of yoga.
Viniyoga is a yoga adapted to your goals, your body, your conditioning, and your lifestyle.
Viniyoga practice comes from the esteemed hatha yogi and scholar Sri Krishnamacharya, who taught gurus BKS Iyengar.

 aYs: TKV Desikachars' teaching
It was the replacing of the word Yoga by Viniyoga and his concern about the distortion and confusion where this had become the case within the wider field of Yoga that led to this re-appraisal of its choice, use and value and the consequent request by Desikachar.
Thus the viniyoga of Yoga, or the application of Yoga according to the person and their situation, would be a truer definition to describe the way that
In a letter to his own students in April 2003 he asked them, in the spirit of guru daksina, to choose either not to use the word Viniyoga to represent his and his teacher's teaching or to remove his and his teachers name from their communications.

 Viniyoga
The method of Viniyoga represents a kind of middle path between the precision of Iyengar yoga and the vigor of Ashtanga yoga.
What this means is that in Viniyoga the importance of the breath takes precedence over form and execution of the poses.
Desikachar is based in Madras, India, where he heads the school named after his father, Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram.

 Viniyoga
Physical Yoga or the Yoga of postures is known as Hatha Yoga.
The founders of three of the most popular styles, Ashtanga, Iyengar and Viniyoga were all students of Krishnama charya, a famous teacher at the Yoga Institute at the Mysore Palace in India.
This form of yoga brings together Pranayama and Meditation with physical poses in its aim to promo te positive energy and good health of the body.

 GUIDE TO YOGA STYLES
Viniyoga is an approach to Yoga for developing personal practice, using postures, breathing, meditation, ritual and prayer.
The Viniyoga approach is to make Yoga relevant to every situation.
It is however important to try more than one style of yoga and most teachers will allow you to do a trial class at a reduce rate before committing to a full term.

 An Interview with Rosemary Jeanes-Antze
Viniyoga is not a brand name but rather a sanskrit term meaning "right application," not only of yoga techniques but also mantra, ritual, diet and communication.
The term Viniyoga has become associated with one such approach now known around the world, deriving from the teachings of TKV Desikachar, author of The Heart of Yoga.
The word Viniyoga does take on more specific meanings in the context of yoga and in Desikachar's teachings in particular.

 Information
Singing, chanting, reciting religious verse, and rituals or praying in any religious tradition can bring inner peace, closeness to God, and spiritual well-being.
A very general, broad and inclusive definition that describes the approach of Viniyoga in the most expansive way is: those actions and practices which complement a person's constitution, capacities and personal desires, on all levels: physical, mental, and psycho-spiritual, and which bring the individual closer to an authentic and lasting fulfillment.
The Viniyoga approach of using breath and spinal movement in close synchronization in every movement and posture acknowledges this link to a refined level that is distinctive among schools and traditions.

Viniyoga is the concept of tailoring the Yoga practice to the specific needs of the individual, developed by the Guru Krishnamacharya.
