I see Chhaya Patel, so consistency in style is important for you, otherwise it feels confusing and upsetting for you. That makes sense.

What are some elements of style you find important? Is it about voice and tone of the teacher / class, speed of transitions, how long you hold asanas, how difficult the asanas are, or something else completely?

Thank you Swarajya! So it sounds like recordings are how you find new teachers and classes!

I know this is a tough question, but how do you know a teacher / class resonates with you? What distinguishes one that fits you vs one that doesn’t?

Nemashe Sivayogan Thanks for sharing!

Kulin Looking forward to it. Thanks!

Angela Broadbent got it!

Chhaya Patel Yes! Niyata Sahu sessions on breathwork and meditation are worth attending.

I selected my first teacher based on experience and watching the videos of past sessions. I don’t mind working with different teachers if they all follow the same style. For e.g. I used to take Hatha class for a long time. Then the regular teacher who was teaching that class left after 5 years, and many new teachers came on board for the same class. Everyone followed their own way, which disturbed me because Teacher A’s style was different from Teacher B’s style. Finally I left that class. It made me very upset; I am a learner, and I do not want my body and mind to get confused.

I take Niyata’s meditation classes, and they are amazing. She is a very good teacher for breathing and meditation.

Thank you so much Chene ️

Definitely will share

I have been taking lessons with Priya for the past 7 months. It is one of the beautiful things happened to me.
She takes into account my physical, psychological needs and schedule the lesson accordingly.
Always a smiling .
When I started I wasn’t sure whether I will continue but now I like this Yoga lesson to be part of my life.
Priya is very good in explaining the Yoga side and the scientific aspects of each move.
A big thank you to Priya and My Yoga Teacher team!!

Kulin we all know your love for this asana… I remember you shared pics of this earlier… can you please share them here as well.

Angela Broadbent haven’t hear of this one before… What does this entail?

Words cannot fully express the impact of yoga–and most especially the teachings of Shruti --on my emotional, spiritual and physical development and wellbeing. Over the last two years, I have had weekly individual instruction from Shruti, and she has met me where I am every week, giving me the lessons that my soul and body need. I cannot put a price on her wisdom and guidance, helping me deepen my understanding of yoga and my own mind, body and spirt. Like yoga, Shruti and her presence and instruction, is a genuine blessing in my life. I am grateful to MYT for making this connection possible as well as the additional resources available!

Simha Kriya because it is said to be the destroyer of all diseases.
