Competitive Yoga

Competitive yoga, most associated with the practice of Bikram or 'yogasana' competitions, involves practitioners performing a set sequence of postures (asanas) that are judged on flexibility, balance, strength, and precise alignment within a strict time limit. Events are held by organizations like the International Yoga Sports Federation and USA Yoga, and have drawn debate within the broader yoga community over whether competition fits yoga's traditionally non-competitive, meditative philosophy. Competitors are typically drawn to the intense physical discipline and the challenge of near-perfect execution.
