I'd like to take a yoga course which focused on strength and flexibility, without all the hippie mystical BS that seems to infect most of the yoga I've seen.
There's power yoga. I prefer Vinyasa, but the classes I've been to and the DVDs I've watched all have had some mysticism to them (for certain definitions of mysticism). That doesn't bother me, though. I enjoy the meditative aspects of it. I just ignore it when it starts to get a little too out there.
I found power yoga, where I did to be a bit too soft, I swastia is very good type of yoga to do. Also found something that around here they call pilates-mat, which is pretty close to the yoga that I didi without any of the hippie things.
