individual yoga lessons


Traditionally, yoga was taught on an individual basis and this method is still regarded as an effective way to explore yoga. Whether you are looking to deepen your understanding of yoga or require therapeutic support individual lessons can be adapted precisely to your interests and requirements.
During individual lessons a carefully considered practice is developed to suit your needs and lifestyle. You will be guided through the practice ensuring that you are comfortable and confident to practice at home between sessions.

"Before a student begins practicing yoga, he must ask himself, "Is this practice appropriate for me?" A yoga teacher must always consider his students and ask, "Is this practice that I am teaching appropriate for this particular student?" Underlying all of Krishnamachary's teaching was this principle: "Teach what is appropriate for an individual."
