Yoga Asana: Asanas are yoga postures and the physical movements of yoga
practice and, in combination with pranayama or breathing techniques constitute the
style of yoga referred to as Hatha yoga. Traditionally asanas are positions, which
make us fit and healthy in all the way. In the yoga sutra, Patanjali describes asana as
a "firm, comfortable posture", referring specifically to the seated posture, most basic
of all the asanas. Normally asanas will be held for an average of two or three
minutes. Besides being held steadily they should also be held comfortably. No pain
should be experienced while holding the posture or in the hours or days that follow.
Hindu Shastras tell us of 84 lakhs asanas. A lakh being equal to 100,000, this brings
the number of yoga postures to 8,400,000.
We teach Yoga asanas as traditional hatha yoga, Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Flow,
alignment and Posture correction according to yogic science.

Pranayama: Pranayama is a Sanskrit word meaning "extension of the praa or
breath" or "extension of the life force". The word is composed of two Sanskrit words:
prana, life force, or noted particularly as the breath), and ayma, to extend or draw out.
(Not "restrain, or control" as is often translated from yam instead of ayama). It is a yogic
discipline with origins in ancient India. Pranayama is traditionally viewed as a practice
involving a lot more than just breathing for relaxation. It is a term having a broad range
of meanings and connotations Pranayama is the foundation for our body because it
refreshes our breathing system and makes fit our respiratory system. It is a term having
a broad range of meanings and connotations. The sage Patanjali, in yoga sutras,
defines pranayama as regulation of incoming and outgoing breath coupled with
retention.
The practice of pranayama is crucial for preparing your body and mind for meditation.
Our 500 Hour Yoga Teacher Training program includes the theory and practice of the
essential methods of pranayama.

Meditation: Despite all its popularity, today very few of us truly know what
meditation is. Some regard meditation is the mental concentration on something;
others consider that we meditate when we imagine something that gives us peace or
satisfaction. All these methods are being with one goal to slow down and, eventually,
completely stop the incessant activity of our minds. These exercises are not really
meditation they are substitutes for meditation because it is normally very difficult to
stop your mind altogether. In reality, meditation is a state of thoughtless awareness.
The real meaning of meditation is transforming our mind. By engaging in a particular
meditation practice you learn the patterns and habits of your mind, and the practice
offers a means to cultivate new, more positive ways of being. With regular work and
patience, these nourishing, focused states of mind can deepen into profoundly,
peaceful and energized states of mind.
Our approach to the practice of asana will facilitate the experience of meditation, both
in your asana practice and during seated meditation at the end of each day.

Mantra Chanting & Keertan: The word mantra is a Sanskrit word which came
from two words man means mind and antra means inner. The mantra chanting will help
you to reduce your all the stress level. Chanting helps us to change our thoughts and
behavior. In our 500-hour YTTC, we give a selective mantra which student can practice
themselves and as well as they can teach their students.

Yoga Philosophy: The main philosophy of yoga is simple: mind, body and spirit
are all one and cannot be clearly separated. Yet there is a multitude of philosophical
ideas developed by looking into the deeper dimensions of the body, mind and spirit.
Yoga is a set of spiritual practices but in itself is not an institutionalized religion, per se.
Hinduism is related to yoga through a common recognition of the Vedas as an
authoritative source, and both Buddhism and Jainism share many of the core values of
the yoga tradition. But classical yoga is best understood as a system of spiritual
practice, rather than a particular religion.

Mudra Practice Sessions: Mudra can be described psychic, emotional gesture.
It is a combination of subtle physical movements which influence our mind, pranic body,
internal organ and concentration. There are hand mudra, body mudra, facial mudra
thus Hand Mudra is most famous. When the Mudras is practiced at the highest level, it
leads to awakening the Prana, Chakra, Kundalini which can bestow specific powers.
Mudra manipulates Prana and eventually our Nadi and Chakra.

Bandha Practice Sessions: It is a term for the body locks in Hatha yoga, treated
under the heading of mudra. Specific Bandhas are; Mula Bandha, contraction of the
perineum, Uddiyana Bandha, contraction of the abdomen into the rib cage, Jalandhara
Bandha, tucking the chin close to the chest, Maha Bandha, combining all three of the
above Bandhas. Among these, I will give you a short description of the few important

Yoga Anatomy & Physiology: Yoga Anatomy is a study of the Subtle currents of
energy that moves through the layers of three bodies. The Ancient yogi held the view
that we actually have three bodies; Physical, Astral and Causal. Asana practice is a
way of imposing order on the human system and use the poses in a proper alignment.
We don't live to do Yoga but we do yoga in a proper way and proper sequencing so
that we may live a healthy life. Basically, Yoga Anatomy comprises of breathing
exercises, muscular and skeletal adjustment as well as correcting improper body

alignment. Yoga Anatomy is a valuable resource that allows you to see each movement
in an entirely new light. This approach will lead you logically through a wealth of
musculoskeletal anatomy, bring the academic discourse to life, and permit you to
understand the body's architecture and work with its safety.

Ayurveda: Ayurveda or Ayurvedic medicine is a system of traditional Hindu
medicine native to the Indian subcontinent. Contemporary practices derived from
Ayurvedic traditions are a type of alternative medicine. Ayurveda is a discipline of the
upaveda or "auxiliary knowledge" in Vedic tradition. The origins of Ayurveda are also
found in the Atharvaveda, which contains described as magical cures for disease.
Since then Ayurveda has stood for the wholesome physical, mental and spiritual growth
of humanity around the world. Today, it's a unique, indispensable branch of medicine,
a complete naturalistic system that depends on the diagnosis of your body's humours
- vata, pitta and kapha - to achieve the right balance.

Shatkarmas Practice Sessions: Kriya most commonly refers to a "completed
action", technique or practice within a yoga discipline meant to achieve a specific result.
Another meaning of kriya is an outward physical manifestation of awakened Kundalini,
such as a spontaneous body movement related to kundalini energy flow. Kriya Shakti
is "a power of thought", said to be greatly studied by yogis. The Purity of body
encourages purity of the mind. Yoga has developed six cleansing techniques or shat

kriyas for purification of the physical body. Through these simple exercises, nature is
assisted in the elimination of waste products and mucus. Many mental and physical
ailments may be alleviated through the practice of kriyas.

Teaching Techniques and Alignment: In our 500 YTTC, we help our student to
see what is the right and wrong posture between the class and help them to get the
right posture. And create the group to help each other to create a sequence of asanas
for their teaching methodology.
