Yoga may be in various forms but it has no cultural differences. Only difference is names given to Asanas which is in English and are easy for western people to understand. As such everyone performing yoga does same steps for same poses.

Indian yoga is the original form of yoga whereas western yoga is open to adaptation. The style of performing yoga in Indian as well as western may vary. Different types of kriyas and mudras are part of Indian yoga whereas western yoga focuses on stretching and flexibility of the body.
