Iyengar Yogis tend to enjoy intellectual stimulation and are responsible, analytical, and hard working.

Scaravelli adopts a softer approach as practitioners are invited to move according to how the postures feel. Scaravelli practitioners are spontaneous and analytical.

Sensitive, creative, reserved and idealistic types like you would like Feldenkrais where the range of motion in the body is expanded and connections between the brain and body are reorganized by drawing attention to habitual movement patterns in slow, gentle and repeated movements.

Gentle, sensitive and easily-stressed people would enjoy a Restorative or Yin class. These personality types, who seek to create a personal environment that is beautiful and practical, would enjoy Restorative Yoga where the body sinks into well-supported postures over bolsters, blankets and blocks.

Innovative, independent and strategic people, INTJ types might enjoy Yin Yoga, a style of yoga that targets the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis and lower spine. Initially, Yin might seem a passive, gentle style but the postures are held for long periods of time and becomes very challenging. Yin practitioners tend to be driven by their own original ideas in order to achieve improvements.

You are efficient, outgoing, analytical and systematic. You are effective at organizing and like to plan ahead. Dynamic Ashtanga is for you – the set sequence never deviates from its pattern and logically progresses from standing to seated postures to backbends. This personality type likes to run the show and get things done in an orderly fashion.

Vinyasa Flow would match this personality type – those who are outgoing, playful, friendly and spontaneous. Unlike Ashtanga, Vinyasa Flow moves in a creative, spontaneous manner where sequences can be intricate and are ever-changing. Vinyasa Flow practitioners are pragmatic problem solvers and have a strong common sense.

Enthusiastic, creative and optimistic people would enjoy a Jivamukti practice. Jivmukti students are playful and find inspiration in this style’s chanting practices, its creative sequencing and the yoga philosophy typically woven throughout. This personality type sees not just their highest potential and also spot it easily in others.

As you are friendly, reliable and like to be active and productive, you would enjoy a General Yoga class. General Yoga practitioners do not conform to the “rules” of any one school but rather blend a range of influences for a well-rounded practice, one that is neither so full of movement or so static. You are even in mind and in body.

Caring, enthusiastic and idealistic people are drawn to Kundalini Yoga, a technology that leads to a profound sense of personal transformation though strong breathing practices, meditation and asana. Kundalini students are skilled communicators who value connections with other people.

You are an intuitive extrovert who is motivated by a desire to understand and improve the world you like in.
