In our Ghatkopar and Powai batches, I keep class sizes limited to 10–15 students so I can provide the hands-on adjustments and technical corrections your body actually needs. You won't just follow a sequence; you'll learn the 'why' behind every movement, ensuring you practice safely and effectively from day one. ### More Than Just a Workout When I say 'Kutumbakam' (the world is one family), I mean it. My classes aren't just places to sweat; they are spaces to learn. Whether you are coming to us for injury management, building strength through Ashtanga Vinyasa, or finding balance with Hatha yoga, you are part of a system that values long-term health over short-term results. ### Why Practice with Us? * **Small Batches, Real Attention:** We cap group sizes at 15 students. This ensures that when you are in a pose—whether it's a simple stretch or a complex inversion—I or my senior instructors can verify your alignment. * **Props as Tools:** We use Iyengar-inspired props like wall ropes, blocks, and belts. These aren't shortcuts. They are tools to help you understand your body, access poses you thought were impossible, and safely deepen your practice. * **Multi-Level Learning:** Beginners and advanced students train side-by-side. I teach in a way that respects your current level while challenging you to progress. You learn from the instructor, but you also learn by observing the discipline of others in the room. ### Locations We bring this practice to two locations in Mumbai: * **Ghatkopar East:** Our dedicated studio space. * **Powai:** Conveniently located for the Hiranandani community. Yoga is a practice of freedom from the bondages of the mind and body. Come, join us, and let’s practice together. ## About Thorat Yogashala I am Shri Thorat, and my Yogashala is built on the belief that yoga is about becoming superior to your former self, not to others. I don't care about the fancy clothes you wear; I care about your consistency and your intent. My teaching is a blend of hard discipline and the compassion to help you heal, grow, and finally find your own freedom.
