160-Hour Intensive Yoga Course — What You Will Learn
Yoga Master Sharat Arora spent 7 years studying with and assisting his Guruji BKS Iyengar. In the 160Hr Intensive Yoga Course students have the opportunity to learn from him directly. His unique evolution of Iyengar Yoga is a practice based on 42 years experience that heals the whole body through aligned Asanas, aware Pranayama and Meditation.
These Ashram Intensive Yoga retreats are held in silence and in the seclusion of nature with over 160 hours of classes and self-practice time. The 3 weeks are designed for serious practitioners to use Yoga as a tool for self-transformation away from the distractions of modernity.
