Jump Start Yoga
Welcome to the science of Yoga! We are delighted that you want to begin or re-begin your Yoga journey! There is a LOT to learn even from just reading this page as you begin to un-learn many things you learned about Yoga. Your understanding of Yoga is about to change.
What is Yoga and how to pronounce the word correctly?
Before trying to understand what Yoga is, let us begin first with understanding how to pronounce the word Yoga correctly. That way, it can be represented correctly at least on this page.
Yoga is called "YogaH" in Samskritam (Sanskrit), the language in which Yoga texts are written and from which Yogic terminology come including names of all the Yoga-postures. So, going forward, we'll use the word "YogaH".
The word Yoga is pronounced "Yo-gu-ha". Here "ga” has to be pronounced as “gu” of the word “gum” and H is to be pronounced as “hu” of the word “hut”. So it is not right to pronounce Yoga as Yogaa with a long “aa” sound at the end.
What is YogaH?
YogaH is a science, the science of how to live. YogaH has been passed on to us for thousands of years as a way of life. It is a way of life that helps us to get the best out of life such as excellent health, infinite happiness and abundant success in life.
How does YogaH help you lead your best life?
YogaH helps you lead your best life, because YogaH is a syllabus to transform you from casual living to conscious living, from feeling helpless to feeling empowered, and from feeling insufficient to feeling magnificent. If you are already feeling great, it makes you even greater.
Doing Yoga-poses is only one part of the syllabus. There are many other practices to help you live your best life.

Yoga-Dance-Story Alchemy
_________________________________
Indian dance is a minor stream of Yoga and is called "Naatya Yoga" (Yoga of dance). Though the dance form is highly complex and intricate, only some poses and hand gestures (Mudraa) are adopted here while still retaining the authenticity of Yoga.
The course is fun, creative and one-of-a-kind since hand Mudraas lend way to story narration while holding the Yoga-poses as dance poses. It is a journey on multiple levels.
Most typical videos and DVDs are "Copy the Instructor" kind. This course fills the gap by providing everything you need for an independent practice. The training is completely shot outdoors, and the education is supported by visual slides.
