[edit] More information required or items to be removed
I am working through the list filling in some gaps, but:
- Brahman-Atman Yoga appears to be advertising, see Article for Deletion discussion
- Flow Yoga search on Google found lots of studios, some links to vinyasa style yogas but nothing clear.

[edit] March 2006
These need articles if to be kept, external links alone not adequate
- Universal Yoga - Andrey Lappa - http://www.universal-yoga.com/
- Raja yoga (School) - sree gnanajothi sampangi swamigal - http://www.gnanadeepam.20m.com (use of the Raja Yoga path needs differentiation from the school. See the discussion at Talk:Raja Yoga)

- Yes, this list needs to differentiate the notable schools of yoga from the physical schools and organizations for there to be any point. Both here and in the Category:Yoga shouldn't there be a distinction between global philosophy movements and description & link to local guru intructors? Murgh 01:21, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
