Yoga Essence
Private Yoga classes help students define and focus on personal interests and objectives.
The classes are given in a private setting, individually or in small groups. Students learn to build a personal routine based on traditional, time-tested postures (asanas) and meditation, resulting in faster elimination of posture-related back pain, more efficient breathing and a more serene mind.
Individual classes tend to produce better results than group sessions because activities and routines can be tailored to your Essence. This allows the student to experience the pleasure and well-being that flows from Yoga practice and bodily awareness.

Mantras
Gayatri mantra
Mantras are sacred sounds with psychological and spiritual powers which have been used by mankind since the dawn of times but are particularly developed in Yoga. Reciting the Gayatri mantra efficiently channels spiritual energy and calls on Wisdom to enlighten our understanding of our true nature, as explained by Sri Prem Baba, the well-known guru and author of the bestseller “The Purpose”. The mantra should be recited daily by those who wish to advance on the spiritual path.
Om Bhur Bhuvaḥ Swaḥ
Tat-savitur Vareñyaṃ
Bhargo Devasya Dhīmahi
Dhiyo Yonaḥ Prachodayāt
It may be translated as “O Thou, existence absolute, Creator of the three dimensions, we contemplate upon Thy divine light. May our intellect be stimulated and true knowledge be bestowed upon us”.
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Perhaps one of the most well-known mantras, Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ is a catalyst for spiritual development. It may be translated as
“the jewel of conscience
in the heart of the lotus”.
The lotus is a flower rooted in the muddy river bed but which remains above the water when fully grown, in a display of indescribable beauty. Every woman is a lotus in potential who can blossom through self-knowledge and inner peace. The mantra should be recited daily by those who wish to advance on the spiritual path.
