I emphasize specific adjustments, like finding the pivot point in your mid-back rather than your pelvis, so your body moves naturally instead of forcing a shape that causes pain. Many students join me after struggling with pain, only to realize they were forcing poses their bodies weren't ready for. Traditional Hatha Yoga is not about how deep you go; it is about how you get there. ### Why Technique Matters When you force an asana, your body compensates. If you perform a backbend from your lower back instead of your mid-back, you invite sciatica and spinal compression. If you round your back in Malasana, you are not opening your hips; you are locking your joints. I use props—blocks, straps, and walls—to help you find the correct alignment first. Once the foundation is solid, the posture becomes easy. ### What You Will Learn Here * **Surya Namaskar:** I break down the 12 steps, teaching you how to move with breath instead of rushing through rounds. * **Asana Adjustments:** Whether it is correcting your arm position in Trikonasana or finding stability in Sarvangasana with wall support, we fix the details that stop you from progressing. * **Beyond the Mat:** I also teach how lifestyle habits, like sitting in Vajrasana after meals, support the work we do on the mat. In my studio in Arekere, I limit batch sizes to 10-15 students. This ensures I can provide the hands-on corrections you need to fix your practice. No fancy poses, no shortcuts—just the steady, safe progress of traditional yoga. ## About Sanatan Yoga Studio I teach yoga the way it was meant to be—rooted in the ancient Yoga Sutras, not as a quick gym workout. I focus on correcting your alignment and breath so you see real, sustainable results without the risk of injury.
