What is Yoga?
Yoga is one of the oldest systems
of personal development in the world
– a system of exercise that works
the entire body and mind.
Established more than 2000 years ago
by ancient Indian sages the system
was and is, intended to balance the
body, mind and spirit to create
harmony at every level.
Yoga pupils learn through a
carefully graded and systematic
programme of asana (postures).
Pranayama (breath control) is
gradually introduced when a firm
foundation of practise is
established.
Yoga practise both relaxes and
energises. It brings vitality,
flexibility, strength,
concentration, self-confidence and
mental calm.
Yoga is suitable for all types of
people and all levels of fitness. |
