The word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit word ‘Yog’ which in turn, means ‘to join’ or ‘to unite’. Hence yoga is a union with God to live a contended, peaceful and balanced life. Passed down several generations by yogis, rishis and seers, it acts as a way to offer liberation and expansion of human consciousness.

Yoga is an ancient physical , intellectual, and spiritual discipline requiring a variety of mechanisms to attain a holistic sense of health. A heightened sense of calm and wholesome joy for oneself and things surrounding remains the core objective.

Yoga Sutra, penned down by Patanjali in second Century, is considered the ultimate standard of reference for Classical Yoga. According to him, there are eight chief aspectsto Classical Yoga which are : 

• YAMA - Restraints, moral disciplines or moral vows
• NIYAMA - Positive duties or observances
• ASANA - Posture
• PRANAYAMA - Breathing techniques
• PRATYAHARA - Sense withdrawal
• DHARANA - Focused concentration

As per Patanjali Yoga Sutra, a Sanskrit shloka does acute justice to explaining what yoga is all about. The shloka ‘YogahChittaVrittinirodha’ translates to ‘Yoga is a divine way to withdraw from the attachments and to control the mind’. The traditional Hindu legend, Bhagwat Geeta defines yoga as ‘the right path of action which is based on the truth and well-being’.
