A course for the aching back
Different kinds of back pain- stiffness, lower back pain, neck and shoulder pain, middle and upper back pain and even pain radiating into hips or legs.
So many of us have suffered of this silent epidemic at one point or another. Some of us have had to accept it as a part of everyday life.
Back Pain.
The pain comes and goes but is real. It is a hindrance, not allowing us to lead our best life.
Yoga can help. It can help manage and heal the pain.
We invite you to join Surbhi in the 3 week Gentle Yoga Course. We use the tools of therapeutic yoga asanas (movements), potent yogic breathwork (pranayamas), deep relaxation techniques and also explore the role of mind in the journey to live pain free.

Meet your teacher
Surbhi is someone who feels that even though yoga in general is not any secret but the slow, therapeutic form of yoga is still not in the mainstream. She teaches using all the tools in the toolbox- movement (asana), breathwork (pranayama) and deep relaxation techniques (nidra) all of it together is immensely healing for our fast paced lifestyles!
A former National level Table Tennis player and engineer with over 5 years of corporate experience, Surbhi got introduced (or as she would like to say- made yoga her best friend!) to yoga quite early in life when she herself faced challenges in her health that were trigerred by sedentary lifestyle and stress.
She has now been teaching yoga for the last 5+ years and currently teaches clients all across the world. Surbhi curates her teachings specifically for a modern-day lifestyle to help realign the body and mind, helping people access the tools of yoga and positively impact their life.

Surbhi is an old soul in a young body. Our yoga journey started last year and we are so lucky to have found her. She’s by far the best yoga instructor we’ve worked with in the last 20 years. Flexibility, strength and balance have improved tremendously. Surbhi has also taught us breathing techniques which have been a boon in these stressful times. She’s succeeded in making us lifelong yoga aficionados

Surbhi is an inclusive teacher who ensures that I enjoy the sessions at the same time gently nudges me to challenge myself. Accommodations that she provide when I find it too challenging helps me a lot to keep going without giving up. I enjoy the variety she brings in both asanas and pranayama. My body feels so flexible now. Surbhi is a joyful teacher and her passion and joy is positively contagious. I really look forward for my yoga sessions with great enthusiasm.

FAQs
1. My pain is quite intense, will the programme be safe for me?
The practices taught are the the safest, slow paced and very therapeutic. You only need your doctors’ note in case certain movements were restricted for you a while back.
2. I don’t have a specific pain point but there is a recurring stiffness in the body. Can I join?
Prevention is better than cure! It is great that you are able to hear signs from your body. The therapeutic practices will open the knots and leave you with an incredible feeling of suppleness in the body!
3. Will my xrays and medical reports be also assessed?
No, medical reports will not be assessed. In case you have any concern, we highly recommend getting a doctor’s note for a go ahead to the yoga practice.
4. Can the practices taught be done on my own after the course?
Big YES! That is what we want at the end of each module. You will be given recorded tools (audios and videos) to practice from on your own. You would be able to practice movement sequences, breathing techniques and deep relaxation sessions.
5. Do I need to enroll for both the modules?
You can choose to enroll for both modules in one go at a bundle price, or you can only enroll for Module-I and then once it gets concluded, you can go for Module-II
6. How do I progress and maintain my practice after the course concludes?
Since you will have the recorded tools of varied durations- short, medium and long. You will be taught on how to create a cadence and routine for yourself by picking and choosing the tools you enjoy the most and the ones that you respond best to!
