Yoga is a 5000 year old Science, being adopted by millions of people around the world for the innumerable health and mental benefits. The word ‘Yoga’  means ‘to join’ and is the union of the body, mind and the soul. Practice of just the asanas can have a tremendous positive effect on the physical and mental aspects of the human body.

What differentiates yoga from other physical activities is the importance given to the mindful action and connecting each movement with the breath. In this process, we learn to be present in the moment, and enhance our ability to cope with the pressures of everyday life. Yoga brings about both outer and  inner healing and well being.

In Vinyasa, the movement between poses is with the breath with a short flow or sequence added at regular intervals between the asanas.  The breath coordinated movement helps the students get into a meditative state. The vinyasa classes can be gentle or highly energetic with strong emphasis on alignment. The sequencing will be creative, at the same time ensuring the balance between strength and flexibility.

 We embrace an anatomical and scientific approach, helping the practitioner go deeper into each posture. The use of props, hands on adjustments and the alignment cues, help the practioner build proprioception or inner awareness.

Morning Vinyasa Classes are suited to:

•  Intermediate to advanced students.
• Students with reasonable level of fitness, and a good awareness of the body
