Past fitness class offerings
Ashtanga Yoga
Instructor: Miloni Desai
The body affects the mind and the mind also affects the body. In this class we teach our students to balance body and mind with the help of Ashtanga Yoga Asanas, and the cultivation of a positive outlook. A calm, steady and focused mind—a quality often overlooked by those who treat yoga as mere physical exercise—is a vital tool to help glide smoothly over the ups and downs of life. In fact, it is this that the yogi truly seeks and asanas are only a means to this end.
