Asana

Asana literally means "seat" in Sanskrit and originally referred to the seated position used for meditation. Over time, the term has expanded to include all physical yoga postures. Asanas are the third of the eight limbs of yoga as described by the sage Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras.

Bal Lahoti's approach to asanas emphasizes gentleness and accessibility. He teaches poses that can be practiced by people of all ages and fitness levels, focusing on those that promote spinal health, improve circulation, and support organ function. His favorites include Vajrasana for digestion, spinal twists for organ massage, and butterfly pose for hip flexibility. Bal always reminds practitioners that the goal is not to achieve perfect form but to move mindfully and consistently.
