Prayana - A class to stretch and strengthen your body through movements

From 29 C$ /h

Body is the biggest asset one possess; A healthy body helps to have healthy mind. Join me for the stretching & strengthening class, aligning with the body & mind in a safe environment.
It is important to keep our muscles and tissues strong and fit for the betterment of our body and health. It is not just about the external aspect of the body but also looking into the internal parts of the body. These sessions would encourage you to find the balance within yourself and your body, through correct alignment, positioning and the engagement of right muscles along with weight shifts concentrating on the different parts of the body. With the flow of practice, we would be looking into understanding the body, its strengths and weaknesses and how to strengthen and stretch our body in a safer manner with our flow of breath increasing the mobility and agility. The practice would be a combination of yoga asana practice, animal flow of movements, cardios and breath work.
Classes would be on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Indian Classical Dance- Kathak Class for Beginners

33 C$ /h

Kathak is one of the Indian classical dance forms from North India. It is the only dance form that portrays both Hinduism and Islamic culture.
I will be teaching from the basics of the art form along with the theory aspects from Natyshastra and Abhinaya Darpana.
Understanding why we are doing each step is very important when we learn something new. And when someone asks, one should be able to explain what they are learning and why it is done in that particular manner. I would also be teaching them the incorporation of theoretical aspects to the practicals, teaching different bedas and hand gestures(mudras), and their usages as they progress in order to understand what they are doing practically. All of these notes would be written by the students in their book for their future reference and self-practice. The class becomes intricate and complicated as they move forward. In every class they would be learning something new no matter whether it is big or small.
Some days they might have homework or creative exercises so that it helps them to choreograph and also bring their imaginations through movements.
I would be starting with the basic posture and the basic footwork called as tatkar as it is the basic and crucial one for this art form. Then it progresses to Tihai's and then to even with the usage of Ang ie, The hands and eyes and the sway of the body.
Tatkar (Footwork)
Chakkars(Pirouettes)
Tihai’s (Rhythmical pattern repeated thrice as an ending)
Usage of Ang( Inclusion of hand movements to Tatkar)
Shloka (Angikam bhuvanam)

Class Flow
Namaskar
Warm-ups
Tatkar (Different speeds; Starting with the slow speed till the higher speed that they can do)
Tatkar with Ang( In different speeds with the eye and hand movements in taught)
Chakkars

I am a certified 200-hour Yoga alliance teacher from world capital of yoga - Rishikesh. I am passionate about health and I am keen to share my advanced knowledge in this area with you.

Yoga is a powerful tool to connect with oneself and one's environment. As a yoga practitioner, you'll do asanas, pranayama and meditation. I've designed this course as a practical guide to Yoga that's specifically made for beginners.

You'll learn how to do Surya namaskar A & Surya namaskar B, preform various asanas, pranayama techniques and meditation to not only improve your posture and flexibility, but to explore the spiritual dimension of life.

I am patient and caring. All the practices will be adapted to individual's capacity and comfort.

Hey, I'm manager of yoga instructor Diana. She's from Ukraine, so I'll help with translations and communication.

Hatha yoga - Yoga helps us to strengthen the body from the outside and inside. It helps us to improve our inner state and find balance. It is an opportunity to organize thoughts and focus on the here and now. In addition, yoga strengthens the body and improves mood. It has a positive effect on the flexibility and balance of our body.

What are the benefits of this practice? First of all, it helps to strengthen the human body, build endurance and willpower. This yoga helps to relax and improves the ability to cope with stress. It has a positive effect on blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Due to the diversity of this practice, it improves muscle flexibility. Also, this practice fills the body with energy, boosts immunity and improves your posture.

This practice is suitable for both women and men of all ages. The practice is a bit more complicated than hatha yoga, but it is also suitable for beginners. It is possible to move further in terms of complexity, using more dynamics and increasing the complexity of asanas. Further complication is focused on the use of asanas with deflections and inverted positions. Also, you can smoothly move into Ashtanga yoga or dynamic yoga.

Diana has three years of experience teaching modern dance and yoga individually. She has more than 5 years of teaching experience in groups and dozens of satisfied students. Therefore, she will definitely provide everyone with an individual approach, find the right pace and the necessary asanas.

Yoga Nidra is a sacred practice of conscious rest, where the body sleeps while awareness remains awake. Rooted in the ancient yogic tradition, this guided journey gently draws attention inward, allowing the nervous system to settle and the mind to enter a deeply receptive state.

The practice begins with breath awareness and body sensing, followed by the setting of a Sankalpa—a heartfelt intention planted in the fertile ground between waking and sleep. Gentle mantra vibrations and guided imagery support the release of physical, mental, and emotional layers, leading toward a sense of wholeness and inner stillness.

In this liminal state, the fluctuations of the mind soften, echoing the yogic understanding that true rest arises not from sleep alone, but from presence. Yoga Nidra nourishes clarity, emotional balance, creativity, and deep renewal.

Suitable for all levels, this practice invites you to rest, realign, and reconnect with your inner wisdom.

Each class is adaptable to your own level and pace, with a focus on quality of movement, joint mobility, coordination, posture, balance and everyday functional movement.

You don’t need to be flexible, fit or experienced. You simply need to be willing to listen to your body and move with awareness.
What you can expect

• Improve mobility and range of motion
• Support balance and coordination
• Develop functional strength
• Improve body awareness and proprioception
• Release unnecessary tension and rigidity

My yoga journey is rooted in helping people navigate the interconnected challenges of metabolic health, stress, and body image. Living with conditions like PCOS, struggling with mental health, or navigating weight management can often make standard exercise feel overwhelming or burn-out inducing. I created my practice to offer a different way forward.
I offer a balanced, body-honoring approach that focuses on regulating the nervous system, building functional strength, and supporting hormonal and metabolic health without force or shame.

Develop a Yoga practice that fits your experience, your body and your everyday life, with personal guidance rather than simply following a video.

I’m Abhay, a trained Haṭha Yoga teacher and doctoral researcher studying breathing and heart–brain interactions. My teaching combines respect for traditional Yoga with attentive, practical guidance.

These live, one-to-one online classes give you space to ask questions, revisit a movement and understand how to practise. I adapt the pace and offer variations, with individual feedback throughout.

Depending on your experience and interests, we can explore:
- Yoga postures, mobility and body awareness.
- Coordinating movement with comfortable breathing.
- Breath awareness, stillness and relaxation.
- Refining familiar postures and developing a consistent personal practice.
You are welcome if you are beginning, returning after a break or looking for more individual attention alongside an existing practice. We begin with a short conversation about your experience and what you would like to explore. The balance of movement, breathing and rest is shaped around you rather than a fixed routine.

Sessions are taught in English, with German support available. If you choose to continue, future sessions can build on what we have already explored.

Hi, I’m Yalisa, a Yoga Alliance–certified yoga teacher (200-hour multi-style training, India) and sound healing facilitator. I ran my own yoga, Pilates and sound healing studio in Spain, and before that I was a professional dancer for almost 20 years. Today I teach from Panama.

My private online classes are made for you: your level, your body and your goals. We can work on:

Vinyasa flow – strength, mobility and energy
Yin yoga – deep stretching, flexibility and relaxation
Breathwork and meditation – less stress, better sleep, a calmer mind
Yoga for posture and back care, from my background in dance and massage

In our first class I’ll ask about your experience, any injuries and what you want to achieve. Then I build a practice you can follow at home. I give clear verbal cues and correct your alignment live on camera, so you practise safely.

Beginners are very welcome. If you’re more advanced, we can work on flexibility, inversions and deeper flows.

A private one-to-one yoga class offers a unique opportunity to focus entirely on yourself, your body, and your personal well-being.

Unlike a group class, each session is tailored to your individual needs, experience, goals, and physical abilities. With personalized guidance and individual attention, we can explore each posture safely, refine alignment, work with your breath, and develop a practice that truly supports you.

Whether you are a complete beginner, looking to deepen your existing practice, improve flexibility and strength, reduce stress, or reconnect with yourself, private yoga allows you to move at your own pace and receive the support you need.

Why choose a private yoga class?

- Personalized attention: Every session is adapted to your body, needs, and goals.

- Safe practice: Individual guidance helps you understand alignment and move with greater awareness.

- Your own pace: There is space to learn, explore, and progress without pressure.

- Mind-body connection: Develop a deeper relationship with your breath, body, and mind.

F- lexible approach: Choose the style, intensity, and focus that best suit you.

This is more than just a yoga class. It is dedicated time for yourself — a chance to slow down, recharge, build confidence, and create a practice that supports you both physically and mentally.

Your body, your rhythm, your practice.
