Individual
Yoga Instruction
Individual
yoga lessons can
be taken as an effective way to begin and/or refine your yoga
practice.
These are intended to give you the tools to learn and perform
a safe and skillful personal yoga practice.
These sessions are more personalized and suited to the needs of
the participant and time will be given for questions and discussion.
Students are encouraged to develop questions as this "inquiry"
is at the core of yoga study.
While maintaining the integrity of the Ashtanga
practice, we take into consideration the circumstances of the
students schedule and daily life. Student and teacher work together
to create a "realistic" practice sequence that may be
performed on a regular basis. It is much better to perform a shortened
or modified sequence with consistency rather than a "full"
series only occasionally. Repetition is the mother of mastery.
Those with special needs such as injuries or physical limitations
should consider these personalized lessons. The knowledge gained
here including modifications or specialized sequencing can easily
transfer into group or Mysore class.
Even students with an established practice choose the occasional
private lesson to get feedback and refine their practice.
Those
who wish to deepen their understanding and experience of yoga,
thinking about teaching or taking on advanced practices may consider
one-to-one instruction.
Or
simply those who are unable to attend scheduled group classes
may schedule private lessons.
Therapeutic
Massage
Adarsh
has practiced Integrated Deep Tissue therapeutic massage for over
10 years. The Integrated approach utilizes techniques developed
within the western rehabilitative model such as Swedish, sports
massage and neuromuscular therapy allied with the more energetic
approach of Polarity, yoga, and ayurveda.
Massage therapy provides excellent assistance in the maintenance
of high-level wellness as it directly or indirectly affects many
of the systems that transport and transform energy within the
body. The circulatory, respiratory, muscular, endocrine, and nervous
system functions can all be improved through the application of
manual massage techniques.
An excellent adjunct to yoga practice, one of the main goals of
massage is to educate the recipient. Through manipulation and
realignment of the body's soft tissues, we directly experience
the benefits of becoming more relaxed, balanced, and pain free.
This experience may directly translate into being more aware of
posture, breathing, and attention in yoga and daily life.
