A member asked:
Is it always neccesary to follow a series or can you do random asanas for ashtanga yoga?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ashtanga: Ashtanga yoga is designed as a progressive series of postures used with synchronized breathing. So random posture changes may not yield the same benefits.
