What’s the Difference Between ShaktiRize Yoga and Buti Yoga?

by | Oct 26, 2024

If you’ve ever scrolled through our class descriptions and wondered, “What exactly is the difference between ShaktiRize and Buti Yoga?”—you’re not alone! Both are energetic, empowering, and rooted in movement, but they bring their own unique flavor to the mat. So, let’s break it down in a fun and simple way!

ShaktiRize Yoga: A Women-Only Empowerment Party

What’s It All About?
ShaktiRize Yoga is a movement practice just for women that blends yoga with dance, tribal-inspired movements, and a healthy dose of feminine empowerment. The idea here is to help women reconnect with their inner strength, embrace their bodies, and just feel amazing. Think of it as part yoga, part dance party, part therapy session—all wrapped into one!

What Makes It Special:

  • Women Only: That’s right—this one’s all about creating a safe, supportive space just for women. It’s like a sisterhood on the mat.
  • Dance Meets Yoga: Expect lots of flowing, expressive movements, almost like a fusion of yoga and a tribal dance class.
  • Feel Empowered: This isn’t just about getting a workout in—it’s about feeling strong, confident, and connected to your feminine energy.

Why You’ll Love It:
ShaktiRize is for you if you want a workout that feels more like a celebration of your body than a sweat session. It’s all about self-expression, so you can let loose, move to the beat, and leave feeling like you just unleashed your inner goddess.

Buti Yoga: High-Energy Movement for Everyone

What’s It All About?
Buti Yoga, on the other hand, is for everyone—no matter who you are. It’s a high-energy blend of yoga, dance, and plyometrics (think bursts of cardio like jumping and shaking). The word “Buti” comes from a Marathi term that means “a cure to something hidden,” and this practice aims to unlock your potential by combining intense movement with spiritual flow.

What Makes It Special:

  • Open to All: Unlike ShaktiRize, anyone can join a Buti Yoga class—men, women, yogis, fitness enthusiasts—everyone’s welcome!
  • Core-Crushing Moves: Buti Yoga focuses heavily on core work, so if you’re looking to strengthen your abs while shaking things up (literally), this is your jam.
  • Tribal Vibes: The music and vibe are super energetic, with upbeat, tribal-inspired tunes that get you moving. It’s not your average mellow yoga class.

Why You’ll Love It:
Buti Yoga is perfect if you’re after a high-energy, sweat-inducing workout that’s as much fun as it is challenging. The mix of yoga, cardio, and dance keeps things interesting, and it’s a great way to let loose while getting in an intense core workout.

So, What’s the Big Difference?

  • Who It’s For:
    ShaktiRize Yoga is a women-only practice, designed specifically to help women connect with their inner strength. Buti Yoga is for everyone, offering an inclusive space for people of all genders to get moving and feel empowered.
  • Movement Style:
    ShaktiRize mixes yoga with dance and focuses on creating a celebration of femininity. It’s all about flowing movements and self-expression. Buti Yoga, on the other hand, is fast-paced and core-focused, combining yoga with tribal dance and plyometric exercises for a serious sweat sesh.
  • Vibe:
    ShaktiRize Yoga is a bit more about empowerment and connection with your feminine energy, while Buti Yoga is all about unlocking your hidden potential with high-energy, primal movements.

Which One Should You Try?

It really depends on your vibe! If you’re looking for a women-only space to reconnect with your body and embrace your feminine power, ShaktiRize Yoga is calling your name. But if you’re down for a high-energy workout that welcomes everyone and challenges your core, Buti Yoga is where it’s at. Also, we currently only offer Buti in the mornings and Shakti in the evenings…so there’s that.

Either way, both practices are all about movement, empowerment, and leaving you feeling amazing—so why not give both a try and see what resonates with you?

Happy flowing (and dancing, and shaking)! 🌟
