Shafa Yoga Beginner Groups/ Levels 1 & 2:
Our  Beginner classes are suitable for beginning students with little or no experience at all with yoga. These groups are in no way inferior to the advanced Asanas and are very useful in improving physical health. Therefore this series can be practiced by anyone: beginner or advanced, young or elderly. It should never be ignored and treated casually just because the practices are simple, gentle and comfortable.
This group consists of Pawanmuktasana series. The word "Pawan" means "Wind" or "Prana"; "Mukta" means "Release" and "Asana" means "Pose". Therefore, Pawanmuktasan means a group of Asanas that remove any blockages preventing the free flow of energy or Qi in the body and mind.
Sometimes, due to bad posture, disturbed bodily functions, psychological or emotional problems or an unbalanced life style, the energy become blocked. This initially results in stiffness, muscular tension, lack of proper blood flow and minor functional defects. However, if these blockages become chronic, a limb, join or physical organ may malfunction, fail or become diseased. Regulsr practice of Pawanmuktasana removes energy blockages from the body and prevents new ones from forming. In this way, it promotes total health, regulating and stabilizing the flow of energy throughout the body.

Beginner groups are divided into 2 levels which each level should be practiced for at least 3 months.

•Level 1: For new beginners - You will be introduced to Anti-rheumatic, digestive and detoxification Asanas or postures, emotional tension releasing, self-awareness expansion, diaphragmatic, thoracic, clavicle, Yogic and Ujjayi breathing, relaxation and Shavasana, Mantra chanting.

•Level 2: For continuing beginners - You will be introduced to basic hips and shoulders opening, spinal improvement and energy block postures, purification breathing exercise and basic Sun Salutation. 

We look forward to meeting you all.
Namaste,
