I took gymnastics for 10 years and yes it makes you flexible but only in certain ways. I had really tight hips afterward and when I went to a yoga class there were several asanas (like pigeon) I couldn't do but my 'lazier' friends could. You prob. just think she looks like a gymnast because she is small. Ashtanga is a pretty rigid practice. And also understand that she's been training for years so of course her asanas appear "perfect"
For the record Kino was never a gymnast or trained in anything other than yoga. The postures here are from the Ashtanga Yoga 3rd Series (Advanced A Section) and are quite challenging. It was after meeting her teacher Sri K. Pattabhi Jois that she devoted her life to ashtanga yoga at 22.

Totally agree, Yoga is so much more. Body wise she's a gymnast probably trained as such. Her routine looks more like a "perfect pose for the judges" kind of thing. I would expect more "soul" in her routine. Too much like a Yoga Terminator for me!!! :)

What I see here is a girl doing gymnastics using advanced yoga elements. It might look good but it is not WHAT yoga is. Although, no doubt, she is good at what she is doing.

grazie per quello che hai fatto e stai facendo a Bologna ed in Italia per l'Astanga vinyasa Yoga e grazie anche per avere condiviso col popolo del web questa perla su Kino.

She's not a gymnast, you just don't understand ashtanga yoga. The main focus is the one thing you can't see...the breath.
Define "soul"...sitting in lotus position and chanting? Maybe a little music in the background?
What you clearly don't get is that what you see in terms of physical asanas is small in comparison to her control of her breathing and internal locks.
Don't diss what you don't understand!
