Bilva Yogashala Kormangala

Our Unique Method of Teaching Traditional Asanas

At our center, we offer a deeply rooted yet innovative approach to practicing traditional asanas. Our method is a harmonious blend of ancient wisdom and modern support tools, using both traditional and contemporary props to guide practitioners safely and effectively through their journey.

No One-Size-Fits-All Syllabus

We do not follow a rigid or standardized syllabus. Instead, we adapt our teachings based on the individual’s needs, capacity, and current level—whether beginner, intermediate, or advanced. Each practitioner is respected for where they are on their path, and we guide them one step at a time toward their personal goals.

Foundation First: The Art of Body Opening
 
Before we move into advanced asanas like Archana, we focus on a thorough body-opening practice. This crucial preparatory phase includes:
  • Shoulder and upper body opening
  • Lower body mobility
  • Forward splits and extensions
  • Backward extensions
  • Joint and muscle group conditioning
 
By developing the necessary flexibility and strength in targeted areas, we build a solid foundation to perform complex asanas with ease and precision.
 
Props with Purpose
 
We incorporate a wide variety of props—both modern and traditional—to support alignment, enhance mobility, and encourage a deeper experience of each posture. These tools help practitioners safely explore their limits and deepen their practice over time.
 
From Preparation to Mastery
 
We never rush into advanced poses. Instead, we carefully prepare the key muscle groups and joints involved. This structured, mindful approach ensures that our students develop not just flexibility, but also awareness and control. As a result, many of our practitioners achieve their dream asanas with grace and confidence.
 
A Complete Yogic Practice
 
Each session includes not just asana, but also Pranayama and Meditation. These practices help to calm the nervous system, integrate the physical work, and elevate the mind, leaving students rejuvenated, balanced, and centered.
