Please, let that go. My classes prioritize proper alignment and breathwork over complex poses. Whether you join my online batches or attend in-person sessions in Bengaluru, we use props like chairs and blocks to ensure you feel supported, not strained, while learning the basics of Hatha and Ashtanga. ### Your First Steps on the Mat Starting yoga can feel intimidating, but it does not have to be. My philosophy is simple: your body is your greatest teacher. In these beginner-friendly sessions, we focus on the essentials of movement and mindfulness, not on achieving the perfect pose. ### What You Will Experience My classes blend traditional and modern techniques. We start every session with intention setting (Sankalpa) and breathing exercises (Pranayama) to calm your mind. From there, we move into: * **Foundational Asanas:** Learning the basics of Hatha and Ashtanga flow with a heavy focus on injury prevention and proper alignment. * **Safe Modifications:** You will learn how to adapt poses to your specific limits. If you cannot touch your toes or balance in Tree Pose, we use wall support or blocks. It is not a shortcut; it is a smarter way to practice. * **Post-Practice Recovery:** We always wrap up with Yoga Nidra or deep relaxation (Shavasana) to seal in the benefits of your work. ### Where Can You Practice? * **Online:** If you are outside Bengaluru or prefer the comfort of home, my live Zoom sessions offer real-time corrections. We keep group sizes small so I can monitor your form through the screen. * **In-Person (Bengaluru):** For those seeking tactile adjustments and community, I hold sessions in various studios and residential spaces across the city. Here, you get hands-on guidance to ensure your postures are safe and effective. ### A Note on Consistency Yoga is a journey of small wins. My programs are structured to help you build a routine, even if you only have a few minutes a day. We track your progress, celebrate small milestones, and ensure you leave each session feeling better than when you arrived. ## About Parul Jain I am Parul.
