I won’t sugarcoat it, and I don’t do Insta-yogi fluff. You’ll sweat, you’ll curse under your breath some days, but you’ll notice what starts changing inside. That’s why I show up on the mat, and why I ask you to do the same. ### Why I Keep Coming Back to the Mat When life feels like too much, I use yoga to get my head clear and my body moving. For me, it’s not about chasing some “perfect body.” The actual win is feeling more at peace, more focused, more steady - on and off the mat. Breath and movement are my tools for shutting out the noise. ### What My Classes Are Like - Each class is 60-minutes, straight up - no shortcuts - We start with alignment focused yoga instruction using Hatha basics, so you know how and why every pose works - Once you’re steady, we flow into beginner hatha yoga sessions, with classic sequences like Surya Namaskar to build heat and energy - Every class ends with pranayama (breathwork) and guided meditation for proper wind-down and deep chill ### What You’ll Actually Get - Stronger, looser muscles and less joint pain - Relief from backaches, improved digestion, and asanas for women’s health - Yoga for stress relief - real tools for anxiety, better sleep, and a calmer mind If you’re up for showing up and doing the work, you’re welcome here. You don’t need fancy gear or a yoga body - just be ready to move, breathe, and see what happens. ## Highlights Browse through Tara Menezes's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/everydayyogawithtara/traditional-yoga-instruction/featured) - [Video: This is what it's about.

People think aerial yoga is all about those Insta-perfect moves, but trust me, it’s sweat and struggle behind the scenes. Nearly wrecked my neck once! Yoga’s my way to shut out the world and tune in. Building an aerial tribe in Mumbai is my jam. We moan, we laugh, we push past our limits. If you want spicy flows and a gang that backs you up, come join us. ### My work - **What I teach**: Aerial Yoga, Hatha Yoga, and Aerial Pilates. Group classes, private lessons, workshops, even office sessions to de-stress. - **How my classes feel**: Tough-love, lots of laughs, and sometimes a crazy routine. We’re a community, not just a class. - **Who can join**: Anyone! Total newbies or yogis. You just gotta show up and try. I’ll guide you, promise. - **What to expect**: Not just floating. Real strength training with yoga. You’ll get powerful, focused, and grounded. - **Never boring**: Always something new - spicy aerial yoga flow or just hanging out. No dull classes, ever. ## More services from Tara Menezes - [Aerial Fitness](https://mytribe.in/everydayyogawithtara/aerial-fitness) · ₹700-1,200 per group class (estimate) ## Experts similar to Tara Menezes on mytribe - [Yoga Instruction by Nikita Bhambhani](https://mytribe.in/yoga_trainer_nikita_bhambhani/yoga-instruction) · ₹900-2,500 per session (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Yoga Instruction (Hatha Yoga) by Sushmita Mukhia](https://mytribe.in/yog_with_sushmita/yoga-instruction-hatha-yoga) · ₹350-1,000 per group class (estimate) · Yog with Sushmita - [Yoga Classes (Group & Personal) by Thorat Yogashala](https://mytribe.in/shrithorat_yoga/yoga-classes-group-personal) · ₹300-600 per group class (estimate) · Hiranandani Gardens - [Yoga Instruction by Tangerine Arts Studio](https://mytribe.in/tanmehra/yoga-instruction) · ₹350-700 per group class (estimate) · Tangerine Arts Studio - [Yoga Instruction by Sonali Shinde](https://mytribe.in/_shindesonali6/yoga-instruction) · ₹300-800 per group class session (estimate) · Krida Sports & Academy - [Yoga Instruction by Sangeeta Kalyan](https://mytribe.in/sangeetakalyan/yoga-instruction) · ₹3,500-7,000 per month (group class) (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Women's Group Yoga & Fitness by Namaste Yoga Classes](https://mytribe.in/namasteyogaclasses/women-s-group-yoga-fitness) · ₹350-900 per session (estimate) · Namaste Yoga Classes - [Yoga and Fitness Training by Vandana Yadav](https://mytribe.in/vandanayadavyoga/yoga-and-fitness-training) · ₹400-2,000 per session (estimate) · Tangerine Arts Studio - [Yoga Classes by Kriti](https://mytribe.in/yogabykriti/yoga-classes) · ₹1,000-2,500 per month per person (group online class) (estimate) - [Therapeutic & Specialized Yoga by Ritesh](https://mytribe.in/rsyoga_school/therapeutic-specialized-yoga) · ₹700-2,200 per session (estimate) · R S YOGA SCHOOL - [Yoga Instruction by Samarth Jani](https://mytribe.in/yogabysamarthjani/yoga-instruction) · ₹1,200-3,500 per session (estimate) · Zenergy - [Yoga Classes by Svādhyāya by Devyani](https://mytribe.in/svadhyaya_bydevyani/yoga-classes) · ₹400-1,200 per group class (estimate) · Svadhyaya - By Devyani ## Book To book Tara Menezes, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Traditional%20Yoga%20Instruction%20by%20Tara%20Menezes.)
