About Yogavijnana
At Yogavijnana, we strive to grasp the true essence of Yoga practice, recognizing that while there are various forms of Yoga, the ultimate goal remains self-awareness.
Our approach to Yoga is tailored to the needs and temperament of each individual, broadly categorized into practice as therapy and practice as Sadhana, an instrument for self-realization. We believe that everyone is their own primary teacher, with the Guru or instructor serving as a secondary guide, whose role is to ignite the inner teacher within. Self-practice is paramount in our methodology. Emphasizing alignment and correction, we aim to cultivate a focused mind, using props to ensure proper execution of asanas regardless of one's flexibility.
Our class sequences are designed to help students find their rhythm, encouraging them to eventually follow their natural instincts beyond structured sequences. While theoretical knowledge is important, we emphasize transformative experiences, fostering a process-oriented spirit rather than a competitive one. Through this approach, we aim to create a genuine understanding of Yoga, where the journey itself becomes the reward.
