Welcome to Private Yoga Sydney

Our simple promise is to provide you with an appropriate personal Yoga practice so that you can enjoy optimal health and vitality -and enjoy your life more in every way! You can choose to have your lessons at our Tamarama Studio, or have your teacher come to you and practice at the comfort of your home or office.


When it comes to Yoga one size doesn't fit all. We offer one-on-one or small group lessons and Yoga Therapy to ensure your practice is just right for you.


Yoga practice should always be adapted to the individual taking into account their body type, age and health -even cultural background or religion. A personal Yoga practice should reflect what is going on in our lives and bodies and different times in our life. At its best Yoga helps you enjoy your life to the fullest with abundant energy and optimal health. It can help heal serious health issues from asthma to back pain, heart conditions and depression. At its worst, the wrong type of physical practice can cause injury or make old ones worse.


Appropriate Yoga can help with Anxiety, Asthma, Back pain, Chronic fatigue, Depression, Fertility, Heart conditions, High blood pressure, IBS, PMS, Stress, Weight management and more.


Our experienced and professional teachers offer private classes for individuals and groups, on your own terms. A group session allows you to share the experience and the cost between family members, friends or work mates. In a smaller group you will get more personal attention, and all individual needs can be taken into account and catered for. For help with specific health issues we recommend one-on-one Yoga Therapy. The goal of private lessons is for you to become so comfortable with Your Yoga that eventually you can practice by yourself at home. Prices start from $15-20 for lunchtime class (Mondays and Thursdays at 12:30 at our studio) to $100-120 for individual Yoga Therapy session.


The Yoga

---

The ancient practices of Yoga are very powerful. They include Asana (physical postures), Pranayama (breathing exercises which improve and balance the flow of Prana, Vital energy -in Chinese tradition called Chi or Qi), Relaxation and Meditation. It is much more than just a physical exercise routine and has countless positive effects on mental and emotional wellness, energy levels and physical heath. Correct Yoga practice makes you feel better in every way, and simply allows you to enjoy life more!


Originally Yoga was studied one-on-one with "guru", or teacher, who adapted the practice so that it was suitable and relevant for the student. The idea of guru or teacher is not a concept of authority, superiority or hierarchy. Guru is simply someone you trust sharing their knowledge with you - someone who is no more than a friend, no less than a friend.
