Alignment: This class will be held daily for two hours. It has been designed to help the learners understand the importance of the right alignment of the asanas (poses) class by implementing proper and effective techniques. Unique belt props are used for adjusting the asana positions for optimum results. Alignment learning is a crucial part of yoga learning and without this, proper asanas are impossible to achieve.
Pranayama: This class is held twice a day following the Asana class. Yogic breathing exercises are called pranayam, which means the art of controlling one’s breathing pattern. Pranayam is very beneficial for healthy living and classes are held to impart knowledge about the most effective breathing techniques for optimum results.
Mudra and Bandha: Mudras are nothing but symbolic hand gestures to direct energy through particular channels in the body. Practicing the art of mudra is concerned with many sensory aspects. Bandhas meaning body locks form an essential part of the pranayam practice.
Shat Karma: Shat means six and karma means action. The Shat Karma is a six-step cleaning technique of the human body in yoga. This is practiced early in the morning for all six days of the week.
