Hatha Yoga deals with the Asanas or the body postures to give you physical agility and strength to sit in yogic postures for a long period of time. We cover all the essential elements of Hatha Yoga including the key Asanas related to all the body parts.
Pranayama is one of the most crucial elements of Yoga. Prana means life, Yama means control. Hence, Pranayama essentially means controlling your breath. It has been proved that breath has a direct effect on our thoughts. Incessant thoughts lead to shortness of breath. Similarly, deep breath leads to the calmness of mind. Pranayama leads to a control of breath as well as prana to enhance the meditative experience.
We cover all the essential techniques and forms of meditation. Enhancing meditation experience makes the core of yoga practice. Without a seamless meditation experience, your spiritual journey won’t go far.

Yoga essentially brings you closer to your inner self and it removes your attachment to the physical reality surrounding your soul. Hence, it is the path towards liberation or self-actualization. Once we attain that state, we reach a state of perfect bliss, pure consciousness devoid of ego, attachments, desires etc. Yoga not only has immense spiritual and emotional benefits, but it improves our physical health as well. Through asanas, Yoga also vastly improves our physical fitness.
A daily practice of 30 minutes to 1 hour is enough for practising Asanas. But meditation can be practised for long periods of time as per your convenience.
There might be approx 15-20 students per class.
Yoga is not a luxury, but a necessity for your body, mind as well as the soul. In today’s modern world which is chasing material wealth and comforts, we spend almost lost touch with our reality, and think that we are only our physical body. Yoga science says that inside our physical body, there is a spiritual body or soul or Purusha or Brahma. To lead a blissful existence free of pains, sorrows and vicissitudes of life, it is crucial to real our essential nature, else we get immersed in the vicious circle of happiness and sorrow defined by our physical reality.
Early morning before sunset is considered to be the perfect time to practice Yoga. Yoga can be done in the evening after lunch having a break of 4 hours. In the evening you can have tea or juice 30 minutes before starting yoga. Yoga can also be done anytime but with the empty stomach.
There is no upper or lower age limit for learning or practising Yoga. But of course, if you are physically ill, and too little to practice complex Asanas, then it is advisable not to try too hard.
