Himalayan Gurus:

Masters of Yoga, known for their sincere pursuit, are the ones that survive the extremities of weather to dedicate their lives to alleviate the lives of others. These powerful individuals are blessed with serenity, bliss and ecstasy which is perpetual. Many of them live over hundreds of years and are fully independent. They do not depend on any other individual or society to take care of themselves even in the old age. These people are blessed with perpetual youth. Most of them transform to such an extent that they rise above basic human needs of food, clothing and shelter. This transformation is a result of persistent understanding and practice of true yoga.

Yoga for common man:

There are a lot of misconceptions about Yoga. However, yoga is the best tool, tested over thousands of years, for mankind. Yoga empowers a person to achieve a state of mental, physical and spiritual balance, quintessial to lead a happy and contended life. Yoga due to it’s very nature comes with adaptability and flexibility designed to suit all and sundry. Any person with no background in yoga can do yoga given the right teacher and program. Quite ironically, Yoga appears to be an intensive exercise progam for the youth. Some of our programs like Chair yoga, obesity yoga, agility yoga, yoga for the old, yoga for kids, yoga for pregnant women et al are focussed on giving individual attention to the person for superior and fast results.

Generic vs Specific:

The world is infected by the disease of ‘Standardization’. Any new program is successful if it adhers to a generic package. Once successful it, is easy to start franchises and make a great business out of it. However, if we can’t expect our grandmas to go hiking or bungy jumping, we can’t expect them to go through a power intensive yoga session. Specific yoga takes care of the individual and makes sure it gets him full attention. Generic yoga is good for people with some common traits, usually the young. Generic yoga is easy to learn and teach but is a myopic approach. To teach specific yoga, our teachers have undergone intense training in sub-zero climatic conditions in the highest mountain ranges of Himalayas. After more than 10 years of training, those who finally got certified in teaching Yoga decided to start WelcomeToYoga.com. We teach both, specific and generic Yoga.

Why WelcomeToYoga.com?

After coming to US we found that a great country with educated people and a love and tolerance for other cultures and religions, has not been exposed to true yoga. Benefits of yoga are immense. It is our personal opinion that there is no such problem mental, physical or spiritual that cannot be solved through yoga. It is very important to know what we don’t know. WelcomeToYoga.com is to an initiative to make people aware of what they don’t know. It is about educating people and then empowering them to lead a great life.
