ok, guess not...

I'm not going to claim it's better than other schools of yoga, just my personal preference now.

It was created by Ana Forrest (whose book Fierce Medicine is absolutely amazing). It is practiced in a heated room (80-90 degrees); each practice starts with pranyama, then moves into seated positions before ab work. The class then moves into the "hot" part of class- sun salutations, standing pose series, inversions- all of which work up to an "apex" pose. Poses are held for longer periods than in typical vinyasa yoga, and special emphasis is put on alignment (to prevent injury and heal existing injuries) and breath. It was designed to promote healing, both physically and emotionally, and incorporates aspects of a variety of different schools of yoga, and Native American traditions (including chanting).
