Background in Yoga
Regular yoga practice promotes a deeper connection between the body, mind and emotions.
While there are 8 limbs of Yoga according to Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, Asanas (Postures) and Pranayama (Breathing) form the bulk of practise in most yoga classes.
ASANAS
Asanas serve to not only keep one's physical body healthy but also serve to prepare it for meditation.
PRANAYAMA
Breathing brings one in contact with the present moment, anchors the mind in the body and helps to switch off the minds “chatter”. It prepares the body to be still and turn ones focus inwards.
Khursheed has had the fortune to have practised under Guruji B.K.S. Iyengar (as a child) and several other Iyengar teachers over two decades. Bulk of her practise was with Zubin Zarthoshtimanesh whom she considers her primary teacher.
