Why did you choose Bangalore to learn yoga?
A conducive climate, noise free and pollution free environ is an ideal setting for learning yoga. After reaching here, I realized that my choice was absolutely perfect.
Where exactly are you learning yoga?
Among the various other yoga schools I short-listed, Svyasa (The Swami Vivekananda Yoga Anusandhana Samsthana) seemed the most appealing - having been recommended by a friend. The university is located at Jigani Hobli about an hour and a half off Bangalore city. Since I teach yoga back home, I signed up for the one and half month Yoga instructor's course. Currently I am residing at the university campus.

How is the experience of learning yoga here?
It has truly been a stimulating experience. In a yoga session here we basically get to do different kind of asanas for breathing, meditation and in my case specific exercises for diabetes. Besides bringing down the stress levels and enhancing the power of relaxation, I feel learning yoga here has benefited my glucose levels too, though this is a gut feeling. Medically of course, only a doctor can confirm the same, nevertheless, the feeling of well being is something that I longed for and have gained here in Bangalore |
