Mysore-Style Ashtanga Yoga is a traditional method of practice in which students practice at their individual pace. The term Mysore style comes from the city Mysore, in Karnataka, India, where Pattabhi Jois and T. Krishnamcharya taught. Students are expected to memorize a sequence and practice in the same room as others without being led by the teacher.

Mysore classes are also perfect if your a beginner, as the teacher will work one on one, so you going to take direct instructions.
