Traditional Pranayama and Meditation Classes
Yoga is more than just stretching. Join our small, focused batches to master traditional pranayama, breathwork, and deep meditation techniques at our HSR Layout studio.
Asana of the Day: Seethkari Pranayama. This cooling breath technique is a beautiful reminder that yoga is also about the power of breath to calm the mind and balance our inner fire.
Pranayama of the Day: Ujjayi Pranayama. Known as the "Victorious Breath," Ujjayi calms the nervous system and brings awareness inward, bridging the gap between body and mind.
Pranayama of the Day: Seethali Pranayama. This is your natural air-conditioner. We teach this cooling breath to help you find calm and balance from within.
Pranayama of the Day: Surya Nadi. This practice ignites the inner fire, energizing the body and sharpening the mind by aligning you with the rhythm of the sun.
Pranayama of the Day: Anulom Vilom. This balancing breath purifies the energy channels (nadis), brings harmony to the mind, and aligns us with the rhythm of nature.
Pranayama of the Day: Bhramari. The humming bee breath is a simple yet powerful practice we teach to calm the mind, soothe the nervous system, and bring clarity amidst chaos.
Pranayama of the Day: Chandra Bhedana. We guide you through this moon-activating breath to cool the mind, balance the body, and calm the nervous system.
About this collection
In these sessions, we do not just sit and close our eyes. We practice specific techniques like Trataka (candle gazing) to sharpen your concentration or Jal Neti to clear your breathing. These are hands-on practices where we guide you through the exact steps to calm your mind and handle the stress of your daily life.
Physical postures are only the tip of the iceberg. At AIKIA Yogashala, we teach that yoga is a full-system discipline. Whether you are dealing with a chaotic work schedule or struggling to find focus, our deeper yogic practices offer practical tools to help you regain balance.
We focus on three core areas:
- Pranayama: Breathwork that regulates your nervous system and energy levels. We teach different variations, including cooling breaths for calm and heating breaths for vitality.
- Trataka: The ancient practice of flame gazing. This is highly effective for building concentration, improving eyesight, and calming mental chatter.
- Kriyas: Cleansing techniques like Jal Neti, which help with nasal congestion and overall respiratory health.
Our instructors are Ministry of Ayush certified, meaning you get corrections that are safe and anatomically correct. You will not find large, impersonal classes here. We limit our batches to 12-15 students in our HSR Layout studio to ensure that every participant receives proper guidance, especially when learning techniques like breath retention or nasal cleansing. If you are looking for a studio where the goal is mental clarity and inner stability rather than just physical exercise, you will fit right in.
