Yoga At Work

Besides conducting Yoga Teacher Training Courses  in various parts of the world, we have long time ago introduced Corporate Yoga Training  programs in India, and it has been a great experience. We have introduced new methodology of training the employees by  integrating modern activities  and the concept of Multiple Intelligence and Experiential Learning . These activities have been developed by The Yoga Institute of Santacruz and tested with thousand of students . They are used for bringing about more body awareness and control, concentration, relaxation and make it easier the understanding of the  Yoga Philosophy  – through conceptual games.

Are You Following Yoga? (Words of the Master)

A considerable amount of confusion seems to prevail in the minds of many who come to this Institute (The Yoga Institute of Santacruz) for the study of Yoga. Unless such persons help themselves to remove many inhibitions, there is little scope for them to realize true Yoga. When one wants to study Yoga, it is not for him to decide what is Yoga.   Shri Yogendraji - Founder of The Yoga Institute of Santacruz, Mumbai - India First , many already hold preconceived notions incompatible with genuine Yoga which they are incapable of modifying in spite of all proof to the contrary.   Second , there is something like craze or greed to know more and more practices without appropriate habituation to what has already been learnt under conditions required by Yoga. Third , there is confusion in the mind of many who suffer from distractions and inhibitions common to the modern life and who remain subconsciously unwilling to follow Yoga under the requirements of its study.   Fourth , all are in a hurry...

Isn’t It !? (A Yoga Poem) by Jo McParland

Isn’t It !? Ignite the fires, Strike up the band, Cleansing all thoughts, May I now stand? In bright sunshine, Or through waters clear, Free from pain, Of doubt or fear. Let no shadow be cast, Nor dullness grow, From deep within, Small seeds I sow. The path leads on, How it calls to me, Poised to follow, A dream set free. Here in this moment, Less the future and past, I acknowledge all failings, And release them at last, Unchained from deep anguish, How it tour at my soul, No bindings or shackles, Whole again I unfurl. As onward I journey, Baggage I leave well behind, Stepping out from the darkness, To myself... I shall find.

It is a thank you to Daniel and Jeenal for their time, effort and encouragement throughout the training. It is also dedicated to the Yoga Institute in Mumbai, without which none of us would be on this particular path. Thank you all for making my time with y...
