"Purna" means "complete," and Purna Yoga distills and integrates the vastness of yoga into an invaluable set of tools for transformation and healing. Reminding us that yoga is far more than a system of exercise, Purna Yoga offers wisdom and techniques for the union of the body and the mind with the spirit. Using awareness, precision and concentration, Purna Yoga inspires the evolution from our lower nature to our Divine Self. It is the art of loving yourself by living from the heart.

Purna Yoga practitioners learn alignment-based asana, pranayama and Purna Yoga Meditation(the art of aligning energies for transformation), along with nutrition and yogic philosophy, adapted for our lifestyles today. Like a tuning fork, Purna Yoga aligns our entire being with the vibration of truth and the Divine essence within us and all around us.

When we feel lost, sad, confused, stuck, stiff, or are in pain, our bodies are telling us that we have lost contact with the most important part of us, our spirit. Therefore, we must use our breath, actions, thoughts and feelings to welcome our spirit into our first and most important physical home, our body. Purna Yoga teaches our mind, body and emotions how to be at home with our spirit.

The lineage of Purna Yoga is based on the teachings of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, the Vedas, Patanjali, B.K.S. Iyengar, and the systems of Ayurvedic, Chinese and Western nutrition, synthesized by the personal experience of Aadil Palkhivala and Mirra, the founders of Purna Yoga. In a world where trendy, brand-name yogas are constantly being created, Purna Yoga is grounded in ancient wisdom. Purna Yoga, with its roots in the past and its reach into the future, is here to help create the world we have all dreamed of.
