Under the guidance of a professional yoga teacher in India, you’ll dive into the world of meditation as you learn about the history of yoga and Ayurveda, and practice a few easy moves and breathing exercises!
You’ll start your experience with a welcome from the instructor. They’ll share a bit about themselves, and give you a brief history of yoga, including its origins and what it means in Indian culture, and they’ll also unravel some of the myths and misconceptions about yoga that have formed over the years. Yoga is one of the best ways to keep your mind and body healthy and can be done from anywhere.
You’ll start the session with brief silence and Aum (Om) chants, and you’ll learn the importance of Aum. Then, you’ll move into some simple yoga asanas. Remember, yoga is for everyone, and has nothing to do with flexibility. The instructor will explain to you how yoga is more about finding mental peace than contorting your body. This is not an intense session, however, please be aware of your own body’s limits. At the end of the session, there will be time for questions, and your instructor will share a few final tips for staying healthy and relaxed in your daily life.
