You should practice Yogic postures daily and dedicate no less than 3-4 hours to this practice.

Once your simple practice of Asana is complete, then the students face asana flows, adjustments, and awareness of subtle aspects.

Students learn systematic techniques to regulate breath, balance the nervous system, and channel vital energy through energy pathways (nadis).

Key Components of Yoga Teaching Methods

• Verbal Instructions: It is necessary to use clear and concise cues that direct students through poses, stating the purpose that the movement is intended to create, and the energy level the movement implies.
• Demonstration: The poses can be shown by teachers in order to give the visual cues (particularly, when the movements are complicated or the classes are on the first lessons). It should be stressed, though, that this has to be balanced with observation.
• Observation: Monitoring how students fit and require means that teachers are able to give them individualized instructions and make appropriate adjustments.
• Adjustments: They may be helped to refine their poses safely with the help of hands-on (or verbal) adjustments to perfect their alignment always by consent.

The practice of Yoga Alignment and Adjustment is essential for injury prevention and correct posture execution. Accurate alignment allows students to experience the full energetic and physical benefits of each asana safely and effectively.
