For those unable to set appointments at his programs or home in Western Massachusetts, consult the list of graduates of the SYT Course who may be in your area for personalized guidance under his supervision.

Mukunda’s first 90-minute session includes an appraisal of your posture, strength, and flexibility, assessing the unique way your body has adapted to Life. Once your assessment is completed a personalized yoga routine will be created in this initial session.

Yoga practice can dramatically change us, improving health and well-being. Yet, every body is unique. You may still be struggling with stress or residual pain from past injuries from which you have never fully recovered. Illness, pain and chronic stress always impact your posture and can cause structural imbalances. In addition, you may have postural imbalance like spinal curvatures, scoliosis, knock knees, or other patterns in your body creating inefficient patterns where weakness and stress may accumulate. Structural Yoga Therapy can dramatically correct your posture, changes of 50% in cases of scoliosis have been achieved, and your nagging aches and back pain can be eliminated.
