The name, Namaste yoga, is derived from a popular Indian salutation. Namaste means: I bow to you. It is a kind of regards which we show to others with our hands together in a steeple posture and bowing at the same time, this type of position is generally practiced in the beginning and at the end of yoga class and the words "Namaste" is said while practicing the yoga. One can do Namaste to oneself as a meditation technique to go deeper inside the heart chakra; when done with someone else, it is also a beautiful, albeit quick, meditation. Namaste yoga is just one of the many different types of yoga that you can choose to participate in.
