About the Different Types of Yoga Postures

yoga is thousands of years old and is practiced by millions of Americans. (See Reference 3) Most classes and routines draw from the same poses. The few dozen or a hundred commonly used asanas are a handful compared to the wealth of choices in the full yoga inventory. But the variety of poses will give you a total fitness workout that strengthens, stretches and relaxes you, whether you are flat on the floor in Corpse pose or upside-down in Headstand.
