| | There's a tendency to think that because yoga is old, it's unchanging. But this couldn't be more wrong. Even things like vinyasa-flow are pretty new in yoga's history, but that trend is now solidly part of the canon.

But cinematic evidence (available on YouTube) exists showing yoga guru T. Krishnamacharya demonstrating a similar style with young students, such as this clip, dated 1938. Nemer and Sauer-Klein's style, which has caught on internationally and become a reliable feature at yoga festivals, offers high-flying acrobatics, but also has therapeutic applications. | Trend and Tell I tried out the hottest yoga trends so you don't have to.
