Vini~Hatha Yoga Methodology

Working One –on-One with a Yoga teacher can help you develop a personal practice, increase your awareness of how your body moves and help you   understand what Yoga and Meditation is all about.   In a group class the teacher can not give full attention to an individuals need, as much as one-on-one offers.  Since for group classes the focus is on the group all at once.

ViniYoga Hatha Yoga Methodology Key Elements:

· Use of repetition into and out of postures in addition to holding postures, so one becomes aware of how they move.

· The science of adapting the forms of the postures to achieve different results (functions).

· Emphasis on breath as the medium for movement in and out of asana (posture), which creates a meditative movement.

·  The refined art and science of combination, which enables the development of sequences suited to the intention and context of each person’s goal.
