In my sessions, we do not just stretch, we use specific, targeted drills to mobilize your hips, shoulders, and spine. This is why my students see real progress without the frustration or risk of injury that comes from over-stretching. Flexibility is often misunderstood. It is not about how deep you can fold, but how relaxed you can be in an intense shape. Many students come to me frustrated, stuck at ninety percent of their Hanumanasana (front splits) or unable to find comfort in a wheel pose. My job is to deconstruct these asanas. We use props—walls, blocks, and towels—to make these shapes accessible, not just a goal for the naturally flexible. Whether you are dealing with a stiff back from desk work or tight hamstrings, we start by opening the joints. For Hanumanasana, we focus on the hamstrings and hip flexors before you ever attempt the full expression. If you want to master Chakrasana, we look at your shoulder and thoracic mobility first. I share the exact drills I used to recover my own range of motion. It is a slow, methodical process, and yes, it involves some trial and error. We track your progress session by session, ensuring you are building strength alongside that range of motion. If you are in Bangalore, we can work on these adjustments in person. If not, my virtual sessions provide the same attention to alignment, using your home environment to support your practice. ## About Praveen I have been practicing for nine years, and I still get a kick out of finding new shapes on my mat. Yoga is my path, not just a workout, and I love helping students realize that flexibility is something you earn through consistency, not force. Let's get on the mat and work through it together.
