Traditional Yogic Techniques: Kriyas and Mudras Training

In my 20 years of practice, I have found that students often miss the cleansing and meditative aspects of yoga. That is what we change in this curriculum.

The Science of Cleansing (Kriyas)

We start with Shatkarmas, focusing heavily on Jal Neti. It is not just about pouring water; it is about understanding anatomy—clearing the nasal passages to relieve sinus pressure and improve respiratory health. You will practice this under my supervision until you are confident enough to do it independently. We also integrate Kapalbhati immediately after to ensure the passages are dry and clear. It is effective, simple, and gives immediate relief.

The Power of Mudras

Hand gestures are subtle but powerful tools for redirecting energy. We cover Dhyan Mudra for deep focus and Ling Mudra for heat and metabolic support. I teach you how to incorporate these into your daily meditation practice rather than treating them as separate, disconnected exercises.

Why This Matters for Instructors

If you are training to be an instructor, you cannot teach what you have not mastered. These techniques add a layer of depth to your classes that standard gym-based yoga often lacks. My approach is 'sahaj, saral, prabhavshali' (easy, simple, effective). You will learn not just the ‘how’ but the ‘when’—knowing which Kriya or Mudra to suggest to a student based on their health condition, whether it is chronic sinusitis or high stress. Join us in Kurla or Chembur to experience this shift in your practice.
