About Group & Private Yoga Classes
What Yoga Means Here
At Say Yoga, I see yoga as more than just fancy poses. It's about tuning into your breath, letting it guide you, and slowly building a stronger mind-body connection. I’m not chasing perfection, just honest progress, and I want you to feel that too.
Class Options
- Group yoga classes at our Jayanagar studio are where you’ll find sunlight, community, and personal attention. Modifications are normal - nobody expects you to touch your toes on day one.
- Private sessions let me tailor everything to you, whether you’re working around an old injury or want to focus on specific goals. I’ve worked with people looking for a private yoga instructor for injury recovery as well as those wanting to deepen their practice.
- Partner yoga sessions (partner yoga sessions Jayanagar) are a fun way to try yoga with someone close. It’s more about connection than performance.
- Can’t come over? Join pranayama classes online or regular group sessions live from your home.
Who’s It For?
Anyone with a body and a mind. Doesn’t matter if you’re a yoga for beginners in Bangalore type or someone who thinks, "ayyō, idu simple posture, naan yaak maadli?" (Oh, this is a simple posture, why should I do it?). We focus on listening to your body, not your ego.
How I Teach
- Alignment first, always. Keeps you safe and helps you get the best out of each asana.
- Props are here to support, not to “make it easy.”
- Breathwork (pranayama) is woven into every class, because managing stress isn’t just a bonus - it’s part of the practice.
What Changes
You’ll likely feel stronger and notice things like less back pain or better focus. A few folks see improvements with things like PCOD or digestion too. Mostly, you’ll feel more at home in your own skin and a bit calmer in your head.
My hope is you find a space with us that feels real and welcoming, not intimidating.

My Story
Namaste, we’re SAY Yoga. You know, we started out just chasing strength, but yoga turned out to be so much more—balance, focus, a new kind of resilience. We see this magic every day, like Mr. Sharma, 70, bouncing back after heart surgery, or Isha, a mom-to-be, finding her peace. For us, it’s not just classes. It’s family. We gather, we celebrate, we do 108 surya namaskars on the street—yoga is woven into our lives.

Traditional Meets Modern - We mix ancient techniques like pranayama and props with today’s needs—think stress, back pain, scattered mind.
Community & Retreats - We’re more than a studio—festivals, yoga retreats, and a real tribe vibe. You’ll feel part of something.
