True & Holistic Yog experience
In order to deal better with being a Type 1 Diabetic for 20+ years and to connect with my cultural roots, I started my Yog journey with Vinyasa 200 TTC in June’23. Couldn’t have opted for a better medium, since my teachers at Vinyasa understood my limitations as a beginner and helped me at every step. Their core knowledge of Yog and all the philosophical and scientific aspects around it make this a far better training then a usual Yog studio in the cities. My Asana teachers Pradeep Ji, Ashish Ji and Arvind Ji helped me understand that even though I was struggling with most Asanas, this struggle was as helpful for me as someone doing the complete postures. The Asst. Teachers were always there during classes to help correct/modify my postures as a beginner. Through Pranayam classes with Anupritha Ji, I understood the power of Pranayam and could feel it within my daily life. Anatomy lectures helped me connect the Yogasanas with the science behind those. Further, the Philosophy lectures with Bhagyashree Ji left a sincere impact on me, and I enjoyed the open discussions during these classes. I found my fellow students to be from a health mix of different cultures, and it was a positive learning environment with people helping each other out. The food in the mess was always freshly prepared, so no complaints. Overall, I am quite happy I decided to take this journey. Yog is now part of my lifestyle, and for the first time in the last 20 years, I feel like my body & mind have the power to not let Diabetes take over my life. This is a Teacher Training course, so ideally you should have practiced Yog earlier and you should expect it to be intense, but the Vinyasa team made sure a beginner like me could get the best out of this experience.
