Daily Yoga Classes
The benefits of Yoga are best achieved when the asanas (postures) are practiced once a day. Developing “perfect postures” as taught by Sri Swami Satchidananda will lead to a healthful and blissful life.

To this end, the IYI has four daily classes, Hatha I for beginners, and Hatha II for those who have mastered the Hatha I asanas. Both classes are given Monday-Friday at 6:30AM and 6:30PM.

Fees for each of these walk-in continuation classes is Rs.30. A discounted 20-class card costs Rs. 500 and may be used at any of the classes within a three-month period.

On occasion there is a work program in exchange for classes.


Meditation


Energy is retained and directed inward during meditation, unlike exercise where energy is dispersed and projected outward. The body and mind are revitalized and relaxed during these silent periods, which in turn leads to peace and stability.

The IYI offers weekday half-hour meditation periods open to the public at 12:30PM and 8:00PM. Everyone is encouraged to partake of this sacred time. There is also a 5:00AM hour long meditation which can be joined with advance notice.
