Drone Yoga uses sustained tone as its structural base, often with tanpura-like beds, long synths, or held acoustic resonance under minimal melody. It is especially suited to alignment, slow holds, and meditative body awareness.
History
This cross-listed style grew from meditation drone, New Age sustain, and Indian-influenced ambient practice, then found a stable place in yoga contexts where beatless continuity helped keep the room calm and centered.
