Hatha, Vinyasa, and Yin are three of the most popular yoga styles, but they differ significantly in pace, intensity, and target tissues.

Hatha Yoga: You want to learn foundational poses, focus on proper alignment, build gentle stability, or prefer a structured, deliberate pace without quick transitions.

Vinyasa Yoga: You prefer active movement, building cardiovascular stamina, burning calories, and keeping your mind engaged through fluid, dynamic transitions.

Yin Yoga: Your goal is deep athletic recovery, increasing hip or lower back mobility, releasing tight fascia, or unwinding the nervous system before sleep.
