What is Vinyasa yoga?

Vinyasa is a style of yoga that is characterized by putting the different positions together so that you move from one to the other. You can do this without any problems using your breath.

Many refer to Vinyasa yoga as “flow” yoga, because of the way you move from one position to another.

The changing nature of Vinyasa Yoga trains you to a more balanced body with less injuries and blemishes.

FAQ

Vinyasa Yoga is a dynamic, flowing style of yoga where you move from one pose (asana) to the next in sync with your breath. The word Vinyasa means “to place in a special way” and refers to the connection between movement and breath. It’s also known as flow yoga, because the posture sequences link together like a continuous, meditative dance. This style is more active and physically demanding than practices like Hatha or Yin Yoga.

The two styles are almost opposites of each other.

  • Vinyasa (Yang): Dynamic, flowing, strength-based. You move continuously, build heat in the body, and hold poses for 3–10 breaths.
  • Yin (Yin): Passive, slow, stretch-based. You hold poses for 3–5 minutes to stretch connective tissue and joints, focusing on releasing tension.

Many yoga practitioners combine both styles to achieve balance between activity (Yang) and stillness (Yin).

Yes, but it requires a bit of patience. Vinyasa can feel overwhelming at first because the pace can be fast and there are many new poses to learn. However, our instructors are skilled at guiding beginners and always offer modified pose variations. The key is to focus on your own breath and move at your own pace. After 3–5 sessions, you’ll start to recognise the flow and feel more confident.

Vinyasa Yoga offers a range of physical and mental benefits:

  • Strength: Builds functional body strength, especially in the core, arms and legs.
  • Flexibility: Improved mobility in joints and muscles
  • Balance: Both physical balance and mental calm
  • Åndedrætsarbejde: Bevidst vejrtrækning forbedrer iltoptagelsen og reducerer stress.
  • Meditation i bevægelse: Flowet skaber en meditativ tilstand, der giver mental klarhed.

Wear comfortable, stretchy workout clothes that aren’t too loose (so they don’t fall over your head in inverted poses). Many prefer fitted tights and a sports bra or tank top.
We practice barefoot for better grip on the mat.
Bring a water bottle.
We have yoga mats available, but you’re welcome to bring your own if you prefer.

It depends on the class and the instructor, but in general, Vinyasa is a moderate- to high-intensity form of training. You will sweat, your heart will be pumping, and your muscles will be working — especially in poses like Chaturanga (yoga push-up), the Warrior series, and balance exercises. A typical class can burn 300–500 calories. However, it’s not a cardio workout like HIIT, but rather a blend of strength, flexibility, and mental focus.

Yes, very much so. The intentional connection between breath and movement activates your parasympathetic nervous system (the rest-and-digest system), which lowers stress hormones like cortisol. The focus on being present in the moment — on your mat, in your body, in your breath — acts as a moving meditation that brings mental calm and clarity. Many practitioners experience a deep sense of stress relief after a Vinyasa class.

Vinyasa Yoga is offered in several of our centers that have dedicated group training rooms with a calm atmosphere. You can typically find Vinyasa on the schedule at SHC Borups Allé and other locations. Since our schedule is updated continuously, we recommend checking the current plan on our website or in the app for the latest times and locations.
