Yoga style practiced is SARVANG Yog created by Vidya Nahar at VYAYAM. SARVANG (sarv + ang, sarv means all, ang means limb/s) in Sanskrit means pertaining to all limbs / all encompassing. It is a name of Shiva, who is considered to be the originator of Yoga (Yogadhiraj) - the ultimate meditator. SARVANG is also an acronym for Spiritually Awakening, Rejuvenating, Veda-Aligned, Nourishing Gratitude (Yog). We practice Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga, Kriya Yoga, Yin Yoga, Chair Yoga, Laughter Yoga, and Yoga-Pilates Fusion under the umbrella of SARVANG Yog.
Centering, breath awareness, breath synchronized movements, joints and glands movements, balancing / twisting / stretching / core strengthening poses / moves, relaxation, Pranayama, meditation, and laughter are an integral part of each SARVANG Yog practice designed by Vidya. Props such as yoga blocks, yoga straps, wall, towels, chair, resistance band, pilates ring, dumbbells, stability ball are used to enhance, deepen, support, and strengthen the practice.
These classes are for adults and for kids older than 8 years. Each adult and child participating in the class must be enrolled separately. Fees are payable for each individual participant including adults and children.
