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

          Hello Anirudh I have not experienced sound bath and as others indicated that I would also like to do which I don’t experience in regular class. I would like to nominate few of my yogi fellows to get their feedback. Sini Kumar Swathi K Shveta gupta Tanvi Thacker harshitha Urmila Jyothi Srihari

                  Sound bath seems very interesting. Please have some classes for UK timings. I have requested many times

                    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.
