YOGA HOUSE

Yoga – (Sanskrit) Union. Yoga is the ancient art, science and philosophy of the development of the individual that leads to unification of body and soul and his integration with the Absolute.

Yoga is not only practice of asanas, as is commonly thought, but a well developed system. The asanas is only one of the means to achieve Yoga. Along with purification of the body, healthy diet, pranayama, control of the psycho-emotional state and thoughts, asanas bring the unique therapeutic effect of inner balance and peace.

We invite you to join the project “Yoga House” where yoga techniques and practices are taught. Practices that purify and strengthen the body and let the body itself overcome shortcomings, weaknesses and illnesses and avoid dependence on medicine which while influencing one problem may cause others.

We pay a lot of attention to the body-consciousness link, understanding that consciousness is the invisible part of the body, and the body is the visible part of the consciousness. Educating the body we work on our consciousness which in turn forms an adequate conception of the world, tunes one to the harmonious and effective regime of interaction with the environment and helps to solve difficult problems.

We understand a human being as a perceiving and reproducing bio-energetic system. Purifying the bio-energetic system we tune it to the more subtle perception of reality and right interpretation of perceived information. Practicing yoga gives you knowledge of your being as a unified whole. This knowledge can be obtained only intuitively in the process of indefatigable training and development.

The lessons in “Yoga House”are targeted to increase the potential of the personal strength (in other words – the energy potential) of the human being. When one obtains personal strength more attention is freed and one develops better concentration, reacts faster and in a more correct way, and becomes wise and compassionate. With the accumulation of personal strength we get to a higher stage of self development. The free attention lets us define what stage of development we are at and set new horizons. We learn to use free attention during the practice, adding more and more borders of control, covering new areas of activity. Gradually the practice of control moves to the everyday life and even to unforeseen situations.

But please, when thinking of self development don't forget about responsibility and obligations that you already hold. Love, be wise and compassionate – this is an important part of the Way. Don't be afraid to set high standards. Believe in yourself and try your best. But remember: only you and only on your own.

At the yoga lessons we share experience, learn new techniques, and sharpen the skills. For greater effectiveness the lessons are built as one flow. It is best to try to be involved in everything that the class does. Start in an easy way but try to follow the stream of movements and actions. Listen carefully to the explanations and try to copy.

We advise all yoga practitioners to practice on their own and we offer help to build self sets. We also give professional advice to those interested in medical fasting and purification and offer a wide range of massages.
