''Vinyāsa'' ( ; (グルジア語:ವಿನ್ಯಾಸ);(サンスクリット:विन्यास); IAST:') is a Sanskrit term often employed in relation to certain styles of yoga. The term ''vinyāsa'' may be broken down into its Sanskritic roots to assist in decoding its meaning. ''Nyasa'' denotes "to place" and ''vi'' denotes "in a special way." Like many Sanskrit words, ''vinyāsa'' is a term that has many meanings. ==Description== Lori Gaspar (2003) 〔Source: http://www.yogachicago.com/nov03/vinyasa.shtml (Accessed: Friday June 8, 2007)〕 states:
Maehle (2007: p. 294) defines vinyasa as:
It denotes a flowing, dynamic form of yoga, connected to breath or pranayama in which yoga and mudra transitions are embodied as linkages within and between asana. Vinyasa is also employed as a noun to describe the sequence of poses that are performed between Adho Mukha Svanasanas or ''Downward Facing Dog'' as part of a Surya Namaskara or ''Sun Salutation'' sequence. Though this is more correctly termed half-vinyasa as full-vinyasa returns to complete standing asana or positions. Srivasta Ramaswami, author of ''The Complete Book of Vinyasa Yoga'' and a direct disciple of the legendary Yoga teacher Krishnamacharya, brings forth the essence of Vinyasa in asana practice in the following way, Ramaswami further goes on to add, "Just as music without proper pitch (sruti) and rhythm (laya) will not give happiness, yogasana practice without the observance of vinyasas will not give health. That being the case what can I say about the long life, strength and other benefits?"〔Ramaswami Srivasta, ''The Complete Book of Vinyasa Yoga'' (2005), Marlowe & Company, New York.
