Three kundalini and one ashtanga or two and two depending on who's leading the class and who's in class. They tone down the class to give beginners the time to find a pose or where we are going into the next pose. So you get a great workout holding warrior three while the instructor gets folks into the form.

I've been practicing for seven years. Keeps me sane. Well close enough for government work. lol
