I came across this brief story about yoga today -- it nicely summarizes a few of the more commonly found yoga styles. I will note however that I would disagree with the description of Vinyasa. The article says, "All forms of Vinyasa are derived from Ashtanga." I don't believe that to be true. Vinyasa is as the article says, "a series of postures that flow into one another," but it isn't necessarily derived from Ashtanga and it doesn't have to be vigorous. It can just as easily be a gentle class and focus on Anusara.http://entertainment.signonsandiego.com/features/401/index.html
They did however also skip over Naturist Yoga, my personal favorite.
