Practice & Teaching

The suite of practices at Samahita is taught in a variety of guided group classes, one-on-one private sessions, and teacher-assisted self-practice classes during trainings.

Guided Group Classes

A group class where the teacher leads the class offering verbal guidance, shows visual cues, and offers some amount of physical hands-on correction to a group of people in one class, being led through the same sequence of activities or poses. Skilled teaching makes sure modifications and degrees of intensity are offered for the different capacity of each person in the class. It is an ideal setting to receive more detail and be motivated by both the teacher and within the group.

One-on-One Private Sessions

If you desire more direct and personal attention in what you are learning in a practice then our team of teachers is adequately skilled and available for booking on a one-to-one basis. This is additional to the regular schedule and can also be booked for a small group up to 4 individuals.

Teacher-Assisted Self-Practice Classes

During our 200 and 300-hour training programs we aim to develop students from a group guided class to a self-practice approach. This is a traditional yoga approach where the student has some experience with the asanas and is aware of some sequence to practice in. The teacher does not lead in normal group verbal way but rather approaches each student individually and offers a combination of verbal guidance, visual cues, or physical hands-on correction or adjustment to the position (asana) to either show how it is done, reveal to the student it is possible to do, help to get into the pose, correct or improve one’s position in the pose, or, most subtly, to highlight certain nuances of the body and mind while engaged in the asana. We believe it is a great way for a student to go deeper into what they are doing. Caveats exist where a routine becomes mechanical and dogmatic. A student should then be in a good guided class, as we offer here, and then come back to self-practice refreshed. The aim is to practice with awareness, connection and feeling.

These are some of the classes you can expect to attend at Samahita:

  • Dynamic Core Vinyasa (different sequences)
  • Restorative Asana (different sequences)
  • Basic Breathwork
  • Pranayama (more involved yoga breath techniques)
  • Contemplation of gratitude, forgiveness and guidance
  • Meditation techniques (several approaches)
  • Silent sunrise cycle
  • Fun music cycle
  • Core integrated strength
