That is usually because they are doing the poses rather than practicing yoga. I focus on alignment and muscle engagement during every session, whether it is a 60-minute studio class or a private 1-on-1, so you do not just move your body, you actually reshape it. Yoga is not a shortcut. It is a process. When I teach at my Sector 104 studio in Noida, my goal is not just to make you sweat. It is to teach you the 'sahi tareeka' (correct technique). If your alignment is off, you are just stretching your muscles without targeting the core. My approach is built on five pillars: 1. Asanas: Moving the body with intent. 2. Pranayama: Controlling the breath to manage stress. 3. Shavasana: True relaxation. 4. Saatvik Diet: Eating clean, vegetarian food to support recovery. 5. Meditation: Building the mindset for consistency. Whether you are joining a small group batch or taking private 1-on-1 sessions, I provide physical adjustments and verbal cues to ensure you are safe. Many of my students come to me with chronic back pain or plateaued weight loss. By correcting their posture and integrating a Saatvik diet, we see results—not overnight, but sustainably. Yoga is union, a way to connect mind, body, and soul. It is about being okay with where you are today and having the patience to work toward where you want to be tomorrow. If you are ready to stop guessing and start practicing, let us connect. ## About Alpana Kumar I am Alpana. I did not come to yoga to win a crown; I came to yoga to save myself. I teach because I want you to feel that same strength, whether you are battling chronic pain or just want to feel like yourself again.
