226 - What's the Difference Between Power Vinyasa and Vinyasa?

In this episode, we explore the difference between vinyasa and power vinyasa yoga.  I share my personal definitions of vinyasa and power and how I teach them as well as some community comments and definitions shared in a recent conversation on my Instagram. We also talk about the lack of standardization in the industry; the importance of clear language in class descriptions and marketing; the origins of power yoga and how it has evolved; and how definitions and practices may vary across groups.  Links to a few things mentioned in the episode: To practice with me online, visit Studio B.To participate in Flow School, click here for IRL or here for online.Content correction: in the episode, I said that in 1940 women couldn't own property. That's incorrect; by 1900, that right had been granted by all US states, but it wasn't until the mid-1970s that women could apply independently for credit lines (i.e. without a male cosigner).  If you find the gender aspects of the conversation interesting, consider reading this article about yoga pioneer Magana Baptiste. Weekly stories by email from Bonnie’s HERE Connect with Bonnie: Instagram, Email ([email protected]), WebsiteListen to Bonnie's other podcast Sexy Sunday HERE The music for this episode is Threads by The Light Meeting.
