About Vedic Yogshala
We believe that yoga is for everyone. Yoga has no barriers. No colour, size, age or shape matters. Yoga is more than just a great workout, it is beyond asanas and pranayamas. Yoga is for the mind and spirit. We believe that yoga isn’t just for physical fitness but is a way of living life authentically, balancing all the elements, leading to harmony.
Whether you’re looking to learn yoga for the first time, or want to become a certified trainer, whether it’s a personal session you want, or a group session, Aikia Yogashala has exactly what you need, when you need it.

Our approach is similar to that of a tortoise’s life journey – The slow and steadiness of the tortoise, the minimal number of breaths it takes, it’s calmness and the long life it lives due to these factors.
Our approach to yoga is also associated with the 8 limbs of ashtanga yoga, the eightfold path – yama (abstinences), niyama (observances), asana (yoga postures), pranayama (breath control), pratyahara (withdrawal of the senses), dharana (concentration), dhyana (meditation) and samadhi (absorption). Just as it is hard to think of a more stable being than a tortoise, that has been around for 250 million years, in spite of numerous environmental changes and extinctions; similarly ashtanga yoga brings about stability, and serves as the foundation and support for the deeper transformative practices of yoga.
In yoga, the tortoise symbolizes self reflection, introspection, and the “inward journey”, it represents stability and longevity and is said to be like a sage, because it can withdraw into its shell and meditate. Our approach is similar to that of a tortoise’s life journey – The slow and steadiness of the tortoise, the minimal number of breaths it takes, it’s calmness and the long life it lives due to these factors.
Presently, the buzz around Yoga is undeniable, yet the predominant focus remains on Asanas, the physical poses. Although these postures captivate our interest, they signify a narrow comprehension that falls significantly short of grasping the true essence of Yoga.
