The Art of Asana: Alignment & Flow
Move beyond just postures. We blend mindful alignment, breath, and deep release to help you build a sustainable practice that truly feels good in your body. 🙏🏻
Exploring variations in Sirsasana, or headstand. This practice has taught me so much about my body's resilience and the importance of self love. It is a continuous journey of learning to respect and nurture the self.
Tamaso mā Jyotirgamaya. Moving from darkness to light through practice. This sequence, moving from Balasana to Urdhva Mukha Svanasana, is a physical representation of the journey inward, guided by the grace of the Guru.
Some of my favorite deep stretches for the legs and side body, including a variation of Eka Pada Sirsasana. These poses provide a deep release, especially for the hips where we tend to store emotions, leaving you feeling lighter.
We are as strong as our spines. This clip shows a sequence from one of my back focused classes, where we work on strength, mobility, and flexibility to open the heart chakra and release fear.
The energy rises with the heat in an Ashtanga Vinyasa practice. Here, we focus on alignment and equalizing the breath before cooling down with long holds and a slow, restorative closing sequence.
How much asana do we need? The answer is unique to each body. The goal is to find a practice that is therapeutic and satisfying, not heavy or tiring. Always play with your practice, never fight it.
Autumn is when trees become the strongest, shedding what is no longer needed to conserve energy. This personal practice reflects my own journey of slowing down, embracing the pause to build inner strength.
About this collection
Alignment isn't about forcing your body into a perfect pose, it is about adjusting the posture to suit your unique anatomy. In these sessions, we focus on safe, hands-on adjustments and the smart use of props like blocks and straps, ensuring you can challenge yourself without pushing into pain or unnecessary strain.
Why Alignment Matters
Often, we equate yoga with flexibility, but true progress comes from understanding how your body moves. Whether you are working on a Vinyasa Flow or holding deep stretches, we break down the anatomy of each pose. It is not about looking like a picture in a magazine, it is about creating space in your body to move safely and sustainably.
What to Expect
We keep sessions intimate, often with 15 to 30 participants, to ensure everyone gets attention. You will learn:
- Technical Breakdown: We deconstruct common postures to understand where engagement is needed.
- Prop Usage: Learn when to use blocks, straps, or bolsters to support your joints.
- Safe Adjustments: I offer hands-on guidance to help you find your personal expression of a pose.
Beyond the Mat
My classes are held at premium, air-conditioned venues in Gurgaon, but the real work happens inside. We integrate breathwork (pranayama) and closing Savasana to ensure the nervous system is settled. If you are recovering from an injury or simply feel 'stiff,' you are welcome here. We focus on therapeutic movement, ensuring you walk out feeling lighter than when you walked in. Hari Om.
