    Maybe people would like a full session of sound healing as

    1. Not included on normal schedule as far as I am aware, so good for a special occasion.
    2. Suitable for all ages. abilities and levels of experience.
    3. Extremely relaxing and restorative for a Sunday.
      I’ve only done this with Rohan, who has now sadly left, but maybe another teacher can do it.

      I would like to attend the sessions which will teach the techniques for certain peak poses. Many yoga instructors outside of MYT does this. I like MYT platform but only one thing bothers me. Every teacher is bringing their own style to MYT which confuse the students. e.g. Teacher A has a different style of warm ups or startup or flow while Teacher B has a different style. I do not want to take a name of any teacher but I know teacher who will not chant Om in the practice. I am doing yoga for 11 years and every session with MYT and outside of MYT, I have started with Om chant which soothes my mind but now this new teacher do not chant Om. I have no choice but to attend her class due to timings. So I would suggest MYT to make a course type materials for each style of yoga and every teacher has to follow that same flow. Then student will learn more and reach the goals, regardless who is the teacher. I had given this suggestion to admin last year but it was not read even. I hope this time MYT admin can look into my suggestion.

      Chhaya Patel Thank you for sharing this thoughtful feedback. I understand how differences in teaching styles—especially things like warm-ups or starting with Om—can feel unsettling when you’re used to a certain flow.

      Tagging the right team here so this can be looked into. Appreciate you bringing this up so constructively 🙏

        A 30 min session with simple guidelines for pre and post yoga(workout/kriya) nutrition depending on class type would be very beneficial thank you for organising. 🙏🏽

          Some teachers start sessions with a prayer, some with Om Shanti. I don’t do either. I continue to breathe.
          Singing bowls sounds nice.

                          I like to see more Iyengar style yoga where postures are explained clearly. I like to hear which muscles are working and what is the benefit to of the posture. More focus on what the correct position of the knee, the feet, the hands are while holding a position and how to use your muscles to bring the posture into the correct position so one does not hurt oneself. I like to have the postures held longer so muscles can relax and the body can sink into the posture. Flow maybe good for some but not for all even for advanced students.

                            Nm I agree. MYT definitely needs more Iyengar. We have one excellent Iyengar teacher, Trupti, who unfortunately has a lot of demands on her time ATM due to studying. IMO, Iyengar must be the most difficult style to teach, as it requires very detailed, precise instructions due to the importance of correct alignment, and a lot of patience and ability to motivate the students as the pose has to be held for so long. However, for me it is such a good style, as holding the pose is brilliant for strengthening as well as flexibility, so it is invaluable for older people, or people with osteoarthritis. The use of props ensures that less flexible people can enjoy the benefits of the pose, but definitely you need an experienced, dedicated and patient teacher.

                              There are hardly options for classes starting from 5:30pm/ 6:00pm CT. If you can please have some beginner flow classes there. Some teachers expects us to know the name of the poses whithout guiding step-by-step to the pose- that becomes difficult to follow. Some teachers do not talk about the breathing part- when to inhale and exhale- so instructions can be a little more elaborate.

                                If you are in Canada, I do the 5:30-6:30 pm session with Jahnavi R. She is amazing, gives feedback and guides you throughout, even guides you for breathing 🙂
