Yoga is an ancient practice that involves movement, meditation, and breathing techniques to promote mental and physical well-being.  The practice of Yoga includes a very holistic approach to health whose benefits are clearly perceptible over a period of time.

Yes.  There is no standard level of fitness required to attend Yoga classes or teacher training programme so long as you diligently follow your Yoga teacher’s instructions and guidance.  

The school provides yoga mats but feel free to bring your own if you prefer to use your own mat. A bottle of water would be helpful too.

No. The physical aspects of the course may be too intense for expectant mothers to complete.

Some people wear baggy, loose fitting bottoms / shorts and a t shirt. Other people wear tight, stretchy leggings + tops. The only thing that matters is that you wear comfortable clothes that you can easily move and stretch in.

When it comes to food and digestion, each individual is different and needs to find out what works for them. As a general rule, eating a heavy meal within four   hours of starting a class is not recommended but a light meal or snack that is easily digested is acceptable. It’s also recommended to be hydrated before a class so drink enough water.

Ideally, please arrive a few minutes before the class starts. But things happen, and sometimes people are late but if you can let the school know at your earliest opportunity, that is greatly appreciated.

To pay for classes please contact Sajjith, the primary teacher. You can usually pay by cash or an electronic funds transfer.

It takes a few classes to start to feel the benefits and make yoga part of your life. Classes are limited in space so it is necessary to book a place. If you miss a class, you may be able to attend another one in the same block, or we may be able to carry it over to the next one. Please contact Sajith, the primary Teacher, to discuss this.

If you can’t make it to a whole block of classes, or want to join mid-way through a block, please contact Sajith and we can arrange something.

If there is space in a class you may be able to drop in, but you would need to check beforehand to see if there is space. You can phone or email to check. Drop-in classes are more expensive than booking a block of classes.

The school teaches Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, Sivananda Yoga, Iyengar Yoga, Vini Yoga, Pranayama and meditation.

Unlike stretching or other fitness training, yoga is more than just physically working your body. Within the physical practice of yoga, we connect the movement of the body to the rhythm of our breath, which helps to focus and relax the mind by directing our attention inward. Yoga can improve your body’s strength, flexibility and balance whilst also calming your mind, regulate how you breath and improve your posture.

A general rule of thumb is to practice at least one hour every day in the beginning. If you are unable to spare an hour, practice for howsoever long you can but be regular and consistent in your practice and you will notice the benefits.

If by yoga you mean asanas, then definitely it is not enough to keep you fit. Fitness depends as much on the state of mind as on the state of the body. Thus, a well-balanced diet, healthy lifestyle and an appropriate yoga routine (asana, pranayama, meditation) can help keep you fit.

When done under proper supervision of a trained yoga teacher, there are no adverse side effects.

The best time to do yoga practice is early in the morning, when your stomach is empty and you have minimum distractions. It is also recommended that you repeat your practices late in the afternoon, or early evening before dinner.

Yoga practice must be performed in a clean and well-ventilated space away from furniture and sharp objects.
