In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.

Our Yoga

I have combined my knowledge Yoga and passion of dancing to form an eclectic, strong, fun yet graceful, heart warming class. I can be gentle as a lamb or as firm as an ox ! I strive to combine BREATH and MOVEMENT together bringing mind body and spirit in harmony. Reading the energy of my clients and adapting the class to their needs and wants are my main focus. I have worked with many students with varying degrees of physical limitations.I work at guiding and giving my students the basic fundamentals in understanding their body movement. Helping them through their difficulties, creating a passion for learning and deepening their practice further. With these tools in hand my students can feel confident and prepared. I am a firm believer that Yoga is an individual practice and no two bodies are ever alike. I creatively bring to each session key principles, Compassion, Non Judgement, Self-Reflective and Humor. "I strongly encourage in deepening one's practice by being safe rather than sorry" Principles I live by myself.I belive in an on going education of yoga by taking workshops with Yoga Masters such as Seane Corn, Max Strom, Phyil Lynch, Tracey Rich and Cindy WalkerCurrently I am the Head Teacher for Yogalife's TTC in India

In a land where yoga teachers are plentiful, one stands out from the rest: Savira Gupta. She started practicing yoga under her guru at a very young age but got passionately involved with this practice in her adult life." I saw the physical changes taking place and then decided to deepen my practice, so I went for the certification (White Lotus Foundation, California), but to finish the last step towards my certification I had to teach". The yoga teacher within was still not fulfilled.With the understanding that the practice of yoga is a unique journey, she went in search for that missing piece. She found herself in India, the birthplace of Yoga. It was here where she discovered the missing piece to her puzzle. Yogalife did just that and thus eagerly immersed herself in getting her second certification.With the union of both the East and the West, Savira began to help her students explore their own path of emotion and capablilites. In her own words, "I began to teach from the heart and respecting the journey each individual takes. I was not looking for enlightenment. I wanted to balance my inner world with that of the external world." To merge the two worlds into Oneness. Her gentle voice grounds her students while they are on the yoga mat to explore the hidden possibilities that exist within each of their poses. Her understanding of the anatomy and the fact that each body differs from another is what she encourages her students to explore within their own physical body with safety. The fire of her conviction instills in them the power to explore these possibilities in their day-to-day life. Her encouragement goes beyond the yoga studio. Her roots are Indian but her background is international and this has allowed her to interact with people from all walks of life. She teaches not just to individuals old or young but to people from diverse cultural backgrounds and in the corporate world as well. She encourages each one of them to connect mind, body, and soul.My teachings are a combination of love, kindness and most importantly acknowledging the hidden beauty that lies within each soul.

Yoga means 'UNION' between the mind, body and spirit. It involves the practice of physical postures and poses, which is sometimes referred to as 'asana' in Sanskrit.The practice of yoga is more than ASANAS. It is where we learn to connect the body, fluctuations of the mind (Vritti), and the rhythm of breath (Pranayama) Connecting the mind, body and breath helps us to focus on our innerself and become more aware of our thought patterns without judgment. We become more attuned to our experiences and feelings. Yoga uses relaxation and meditation techniques to calm or still the mind. Yoga increases the lubrication of joints, ligaments, tendons and creates a leaner,stable,flexiable and more toned body. As we age our spine ages as well, practicing yoga strengthens the spine and our muscular skeletal system. This practice is very helpful for anyone recovering from any sports injuries or surgeries. Yoga brings calmness and releases any stress or tension within the body.
Classes

Yin Yoga

This form of practice targets the connective tissues, ligaments and tendons of the physical body.The use of props like blankets, blocks or bolsters help support your body to relax deeper into the asana. It is a soothing and nurturing form of yoga that promotes deep relaxation and relases any tension or stress within the body or mind. Yin is a beautiful compliment to the practice of Yang

Hatha Yoga

HA' means Sun and 'THA' moon and 'Yoga' union'.Thus bringing balance of the sun and moon or as we know it balance of 'Ying' and 'Yang'. I will gently guide you through a slower paced stretching session with focus and attention given to the "different types of pranayama". This class will be calm and meditative bringing awarness within the self. Combining breath and asana (postures) together is key for building the basic foundation of a yoga practice. I will take you step by step through the basic poses, relaxation techniques, and help you create an understanding of your own body and its movements.

Vinyasa/Power

The word Vinyasa means “breath-synchronized movement.” I will help you flow through one pose to the next on an inhale or an exhale. This technique is called Vinyasa Flow because of the smooth way that the poses run together and are almost dance like. Sun salutations which are an important part of this class and can be fast or slow paced depending on your stamina or strength. Gentle reminders of breath and holding poses will be in use through out the sesion.

CommentsYou are awesome and make the world a better place!!:) Pam DThanks for the workshop yesterday. I enjoyed it and found it to be healing. I realize how fidgety I am though. Stillness while holding an uncomfortable position takes a certain amount of mental discipline that I am still learning. I can be still and focus on my breath when I sit cross legged in meditation and slip away into a quiet state. But finding that inner quiet while pushing your body is new for me. Your words and your voice were very helpful in making me work through it though. RoopiI thought it was WONDERFUL. I think a great, magical feeling of calm descended into the space, with everybody really working hard at focusing their minds. I found it a very meditative experience- having to delve to depths of concentration that I don't normally delve to and clinging to my breathing like a raft when working through a pose.. I loved the music which helped soothe, focus yet distract at the same time- during some of the more challenging poses for me. Charlotte JThank you for a wonderful practice of your yin yoga. I have never felt as connected and introverted in a yoga practive before. I felt so light afterwards and slept for the longest time. Waking up, to feel like a new balanced me. Loved it !!! KatherineYou had a very gentle way of guiding us through both physically and verbally. I felt totally relaxed afterwards.I'm looking forward to doing it. Lone GI've been practicing yoga since 2000 and seen many different yoga styles and teachers. I finally found what I've been looking for in Savira. I just had amazing 3 hours with her in her Yin yoga workshop. My body and mind are fully connected.Thank you so much for the wonderful class.I have to say that you are definitely the best teacher I have found here in Delhi. Your way of teaching is so spiritual and mindfulness combined with strength, I truly enjoyed it. Nanna M

CommentsSavira is a talented yoga teacher and yogi and a wonderful person. Her classes, which are both intense and dynamic, are inspiring. I felt that she was able to guide me smoothly into yoga postures, adjust me in such a way that helped me to correct and deepen the posture and increase the benefits of the practice. She is a compassionate and passionate yoga teacher whom I can recommend to every yogi. There is much to learn from her. I wish I were closer to her now!Nathalie L.Savira Ji! An amazing woman and an inspiring teacher.Her commintment with the yoga practice is the fuel for her way of teaching:technically impecable, and the most important thing, deep, full of energy and passion. Maria D.PI did the ttc with Yogalife and Savira is one of my teachers. Her classes are wonderful to inspire, give you a workout/in, to connect within and I have taken a lot of inspiration from her as to what kind of teacher I would like to become. Her Yin classes are out of this world! If you need inspiring and empowering she is your woman! Emily AYou are too good and I Truly enjoyed each and every session of yours.Thank you.
