Basic Information about Yoga:
Yoga originated in India many thousand years ago and can be described as one of the oldest system of personal development in the world.

Anyone can practise Yoga independent of race, age, sex or ability. If you have a strong desire for a healthier, more fulfilled life you can practise Yoga virtually anywhere; you don't even need any special equipment or clothes.

Asanas or Yogic postures work on every part of the body. They are stretching and toning muscles, joints, the spine and the entire skeleton. Asanas also work on your internal organs, glands and nerves. Due to the release of physical and mental tension they set free vast resources of energy.

Pranayama or breathing exercises revitalise the body and help to control the mind which in turn can make you feel calm and refreshed. The practice of positive thinking gives increased clarity, mental power and concentration.
