One doesn't train for a yoga competition to be "the best" at yoga. It is a personal goal to strive towards. Unlike a traditional competition, at a yoga competition, your opponents are not wishing for you to fail. Instead, it is a very supportive atmosphere. My teacher said "if one person in the crowd decides to start yoga because of watching me compete, my job is done." It is not for the glory, it is for the love of yoga!
sounds like some jedi mind tricks, sure going up in front of people competing for a rank isn't going to involve ego... I also have a nice bridge to sell you.
Your comment shows Envy, jealousy, criticism... let's first work on our ego. Krishna said everything is yoga, and is better start yoga by curiosity or different reasons than do nothing at all.
The one in front is the winner. There is only one winner, always. It's the winner, the second position, the third position and the other participants which are also called "losers" because they lost. There is by no possible means true what you said. The guy in the front is the winner. If you participated here, you would be the loser. It's as simple as that. Also, first prize is superior to second and third prize and is far more superior that the participants. Is by all means measurable. Keep your emotional thinking for yourself ma'am
Its not a yoga competition. It is a yoga 'aasanas' competition, and thats ok. Nothing wrong in it. ( I am from india. This is common. Local schools organise that type of competitions. Not the convent or fancy ones ) This is totaly ok to encourege young ones to communicate their souls through your anga aasanas. This is not for yogis. This is for practicers Who want to achieve physical fitness for the next step. So do not pass judgments on 'yog' whithout knowing anything about sanatan dharm or Guru shishya parampara ( ancient educational system) from India.
I understand what you are saying, rambo and you are totally right. For me.. and not just for me, yoga is not competition at all. Self realization is not about compare to each other. This is just entertainment and opportunity to see what a man can do with his body.
I find our human desire to make everything into a competition, fascinating! I don't know if the original yogi masters ever intended this to be a competitive "sport" w/🏆 and all. Anyhow, I find this inspiring and like the quiet audience.🙂👋🏽👨🏽⚕️🧘
I feel that sentiment. I find the the competition is meant as a tool. And perhaps even designed by yoga masters to train certain minded students to come to center ❤
Had the same problem last year and i was 26 😅 to top it off i always had back pain. Doing yoga everyday and warming up before doing squats does help a lot
I'm literally 26 with crackly knees and also minor shin splints. But after tending to my feet and knees in yoga and being more focused on correct and safe form during gym sessions things have been getting better. Take care mang
There shouldn't be any judgement. There is no right or wrong in yoga, It is as it is. You can perceive this "competition" however you want to. But isn't this competition getting more exposure for the practice of yoga. This means more people getting invited to the spiritual path. Competition is not a bad thing it can help with motivation and drive. Its the intention of the person which counts.
There's an IMMENSE amount of tantrums in the comment section. "Boo hoo this isn't Yoga", grow up. Be happy for these people who are pursuing their life and love. I suspect some of the negativity comes from jealousy and envy.

@Shree Corona singh Virus Are you saying that you KNOW that Patanjali actually existed and was a man or do you mean that you belive that she was a man?
Me encanta! La finalidad de yoga no es la competicion pero si sirve para llegar y motivar a la gente me parece genial, pues aprenderian mucho sobre el cuerpo humano y la salud muscular. Quizas debiaramos preparar competiciones de meditacion a tiempo pues ello llevaria a trabajar la mente y iluminaria a mucha gente. Campeones serian todos los que llegen a disfrutar y gozar de ello. Seria algo increible!
Hahaha I love your comment,you are right with the word “Amazing Strength “Yoga have bring light to so many life at there,this shows that Yoga is the best among all.
@yugandali Right, I agree with you as far as the true spirit of Yoga, especially original forms such as Kundalini. But the postures are a very physical aspect, so if you were to remove just the postures from the practice and compare your abilities, it becomes pretty inspiring from a purely physical standpoint -- so while this isn't something to strive for solely, I think it's fine to just look at it from a spectacle standpoint.
2011 CZcams-No 2014 CZcams-no 2016 CZcams-no 2018 CZcams-heck no 2020 CZcams-everyone is in their home quarantined so lets put this in everyone's recommendation
It's interesting to see how asana's can be done, purely from a physical point of view. But of course it has nothing to do with yoga. Basically, someone who has a very bad technique can still be a much better yogi than someone who has a perfect asana technique. As each advanced yogi knows, yoga is about self acceptance, making the role of the ego smaller, a deep spiritual connection. That can be achieved without a perfect technique. Whereas someone with a perfect technique can still -potentially- stay at the surface and never go deeper within.
Yoga gives you such strength in life. That we need. Yoga is a link connecting you to the natural environment and the universe, so let's do yoga. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
A yoga competition! I'm shocked! Not just for organizing this, but really for the people that goes to compete in! Great gymnast but not yogis! They lost the true meaning of yoga.
@@laraking804 I lived in India for several years and my teachers and people close to yoga never mentioned a competition. I would not imagine my teacher in one of those when they even stay away from media. They just live yoga joyfully, because yoga is part of them.
Corinenov just look it up. It’s been around for a long time. It also doesn’t mean that it was practiced in by all or even in all regions of India. It’s a massive country after all. But yes it’s a thing.
After watching it i think why the world is so mad about bodybuilding wasting lot of time, money, eating harmful chemicals then becoming something which human body is not expected to be. Whereas yoga is natural almost free to learn and good for body and mind.😍
The amount of Lulu lemon girls here saying that is is not yoga just bc it’s not what they “instructors” teach, it’s just flattering. Like, did Americans discover yoga too now?
This is not the practice that I came to love but I am not going to bash it just because I can. From a physical aspect, the level of control and mental focus these men displayed are truly impressive and inspiring, which I believe is similar to how much they put in in their regular practices regardless of their lineages, physical and otherwise. It cannot be denied that historically, public demos of asana practice were done in the past to create awareness and invite young men to join. And this is no different now basing it on this spectacle aside from the 'competition' level. Nevertheless, I believe 'competition' will never be taken away since the ego will always be there whether it be competing against fluctuations of the mind or even going respectfully beyond the limits of the body. There will always be a semblance of the 'push-pull' dance in it. Now, how this dance translates off the mat is where for me real yoga happens.
It’s hard to tell what the judges are doing. Interesting. There is no point is being upset about the contradiction of a yoga competition. There is no point in being upset. A fun thing to do with likeminded people- wonderful! I bet your spine isn’t as healthy as theirs! Don’t hate!!!! Congratulate! 🙏🏼
El yoga es una práctica que involucra cuerpo y mente es un estilo de vida,no una competición,son grandiosos y sus asanas perfectas, pero esto no es ser un yogi en mi opinión,namaste✌❤
It's about promoting they are showing difficult postures so it pushes people to learn and improve their lifestyle ! Alot of stuff like this happns regularly in india
agree.perhaps one way to attract younger generation. Olympic should have yoga as well where you can measure it by accuracy. in the end yoga will make you loses ego even if you started with one.
Bodybuilders obviously can't do those exercises lmao they're flexibility related. I bet none of those dudes can bench press their weight, for instance.
This is the level of procrastination I'm at
Best comment here because fucking same lol

That dude at the front was on his own level, lol
He's an indian man....
Probably the defending champ

Stupid, he won the championship. And he is a Indian man, don't thought that Indian person is weak on Yoga culture.
