Cultivating inner wellbeing, insight and wisdom requires quiet and dedicated time for self-inquiry and reflection. Our serene surroundings at the Fig House enable you to embark on a transformative journey towards self-discovery and taking charge of your life to become the master of your destiny.

Haṭha yoga, derived from the Sanskrit word हठ haṭha meaning “force”, encompasses physical postures aimed at enhancing the body’s inner strength and health while filling the body with energy and vitality.

According to Haṭha yoga texts, a posture is perfected when effort dissolves, breathing normalizes, and one attains inner awareness. Yoga’s essence lies in aligning and purifying the mind, body, and spirit, and developing inner mastery. Amidst an ever-changing and chaotic physical world, individuals face challenges. Yoga teaches us to live with resilience, undisturbed by external factors.

Iyengar yoga, derived from hatha yoga, focuses on precise alignment and prolonged poses to enhance strength, flexibility, and overall wellbeing. This powerful practice fosters a deep sense of inner balance, strength, and harmony. At our institute, all our teachings are rooted in the Iyengar School of Yoga, guiding practitioners on a journey from the external layers of the physical body to the inner layers of their authentic selves.

Prānāyāma (Sanskrit: प्राणायाम) is a yogic discipline centered around the breath. “Prāṇa” signifies the vital life force, while “yāma” implies gaining control.

Within the realm of yoga, breath and prāṇa are closely intertwined as life energy. Consequently, prānayama serves as a means to amplify and elevate prāṇa śakti, the energies that sustain life.


Developing proficiency in pranayama practices begins with nurturing the muscles involved in breathing. The body acts as the gateway to the breath, and in turn, the breath serves as the gateway to the mind. By honoring the body’s connection to the breath, we lay the foundation for a profound exploration of the mind-body connection and the transformative power of breathwork.

Pratyahara, a fundamental aspect of Yoga, involves the intentional withdrawal of our senses and the sensory inputs they bring into our physical being. Our senses, which act as conduits for external stimuli, can often overwhelm us and impede the gathering and concentration of our thoughts, as seen in the subsequent stage of Yoga called Dharana.

Among the various methods used to withdraw the senses, one widely practiced approach is mindfulness directed towards the breath. By attentively observing the breath without attempting to control it, our connection to external senses and stimuli gradually diminishes.

The mind naturally tends to wander amidst the sensory inputs, but as these inputs recede, the mind can redirect its focus inward. This inward turning of the mind is a pivotal aspect of pratyahara.

Dhāraṇā, a significant stage in the practice of Yoga, can be understood as “holding steady,” “concentration,” or “single focus.” It follows the preceding limb of Pratyahara, which involves withdrawing the senses from external stimuli.

Dhāraṇā takes this process a step further, refining it to attain ekagrata or ekagra chitta, a state of single-pointed concentration and focus.

In the practice of Dhāraṇā, the practitioner enters a state of deep concentration meditation, wherein the chosen object of focus is held firmly in the mind, undisturbed by wandering thoughts or distractions. This unwavering consciousness towards the chosen object characterizes the essence of Dhāraṇā.

By gradually strengthening and opening the body layer by layer, you develop a solid foundation through precise technique and alignment, deepening the connection to the physical core through a heightened self-awareness and muscular engagement.

With consistent dedication, each student’s practice evolves, fostering endurance, strength, flexibility, and a centered, balanced way of existence that aligns both your internal and external selves. The practice also aids in building immunity, relieving stress, anxiety, and pain.

4worldlovers:
Hello, I'm currently taking Pranayama Sessions online from Rajat Sir. The sessions are very helpful and practical. Rajat sir makes it a point to explain everything clearly including form and posture. The sessions have a variety of exercises (nothing boring or monotonous). I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to learn and understand more about the breath!

I started taking personal training from past couple of months. Rajat Sir have been wonderful, equally professional and friendly trainer. It feels like true, genuine yoga. My flexibility and strength has increased a lot since I joined .Looking forward for more flexibility and strength .Thank you for being true to yoga!

I would recommend very highly of Yoga sessions by Rajat. It changed my outlook about Yoga as not just an alternative exercise activity to build stamina and flexibility but a method to bring control and focus in the situations where mind used to get agitated. It helped me in staying calm internally which automatically brings heart rate down, exertion in check and slows down the unwanted reaction which often comes easy to us due to our habit. The sessions also helped me go deeper into philosophy of Hatha Yoga and Kundalini. I would recommend Rajat's classes to anyone who would like to start or further the practice they are currently following for mental and physical health.
