If you are new to the path of yoga and need an introduction to the basic asanas and pranayama techniques, then you must join the Beginners Course. A Beginners’ course also helps those who haven’t practiced in a while and need a refresher.

If you have done a Beginners Course or equivalent, then you could directly join the Open Practice Sessions which is a 75-minute daily practice that helps you lead healthier lifestyle, holistically.
