Although benefits of Yoga can be felt as early as entering the Yoga Hall, regular practice is important for lasting and potent effects.
Right after the course, without delay, is the right time to make a commitment to Yoga practice.

regular monthly donation : Rs. 1000
3 months open class : Rs. 2000
