# Amina Sarkar Bharat Ram

As a certified Iyengar Yoga teacher in the lineage of B.K.S. Iyengar, I focus on precise alignment and the philosophy of the practice. My classes use asanas as a disciplined path to self-understanding.

### My story

Guruji B.K.S. Iyengar’s words kinda stuck with me: yoga ferried me from confusion to clarity. I’m Amina, certified Iyengar Yoga teacher, but honestly, always a student first. What I share isn’t just mine - it’s passed down, guru to student, old-school style. Every pose, every breath, it’s about connecting body, mind, soul. Discipline, yes, but also kindness to yourself. My job? Just holding space, passing on what my teachers gave me. We’re all just finding that little spark inside.

### My work

- **Certified Iyengar Yoga Classes (Online & Delhi Studio)**: I teach all levels, from beginners to advanced, with special focus on certified Iyengar Yoga classes and therapeutic yoga for back pain.
- **Precision and Alignment**: We get into the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of every asana, not just the shape. It’s about learning with your whole body.
- **Props Make Yoga for Everyone**: Chairs, belts, blocks, bolsters - Iyengar yoga with props means anyone can join, no matter your age or flexibility.
- **Beyond Physical - Meditation in Action**: Yoga’s not just stretching, it’s quieting the mind, finding balance. That’s what we work on together.
