Ayurveda

Ayurveda is one of the world’s oldest holistic (whole body) healing systems. It is based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body and spirit.

Ayurveda is a Sanskrit term made up of the words “ayu” and “veda”. “Ayu” means life and “veda” means knowledge or science. The term “Ayurveda” thus means  “the knowledge of life” or “the science of life”.

This course is exclusively for TTC students.

Asana Adjustment Classes

Ashtanga Vinyasa is a disciplined sequence of asana synchronise with breath, count, sight (gaze) and posture Bandhas or Mudras are also a crucial aspect. It is best practiced in a quiet, warm, clean, well- ventilated room. It is important that the body stays hot during the practice in order to advance safely. Ashtanga should not be practiced outdoors as the body cools down through evaporation. Postures should be held for five breaths in beginners practice and up to 15 breaths for more advanced students. Students are supervised by our experienced teacher and may adjust the postures by explaining the techniques on  how to perform the asana posture perfectly. Flexibility of the body differs for every individual. The teacher will handle them in a easy and safer way. Once the postures are perfected, students will be more disciplined in their daily practice as purpose, motivitation, encouragement and achievement will be enhanced.

Hatha Yoga

Yoga practitioners of different age groups from all over the world come together to practice Hatha Yoga here at the school.

Hatha Yoga is a series of asana designed to align your body. The postures are designed to open the many channel in of the body –especially the main channel the spine so that energy can flow freely.

Hatha is also translated as " ha" meaning “sun” and " tha" meaning “moon”. These two fundamentals ha and tha are prana and apana. These can give control over the mind which is Raja Yoga. It also refers to the balance of the masculine aspects- active, hot, sun and female aspects – receptive, cool, moon within all of us.

Hatha Yoga is a path towards creating balance and uniting opposites. In our physical bodies we develop balance of strength and flexibility. We also learn to balance our effort and surrender in each pose.

Hatha Yoga is a powerful tool for self-transformation or self-realization. It is a complete and integral system of spiritual development for body, mind and spirit. In bringing attention to our breath it helps to still the fluctuations of the mind and be more present.
