We firmly believe that Yoga is a discipline and you must create a habit for your practice. At Shvasa, we currently have a monthly subscription model.You can also pause your subscription by contacting customer care. You will not be billed for that period. Based on your schedule, you can choose to practice 2 times a week ($59/mo); 3 times a week ($79/mo), or every day of the week ($99/mo).
At Shvasa, we currently offer a preliminary Ayurveda profiling, and on the basis of your body/dosha composition, we can suggest basic food/eating/workout options. We will soon be starting diet consultations and will be announcing the same to our customers through emails.
At Shvasa, our goal is to teach authentic practices to meet the current needs. Classical Hatha practices forms the core of all our offerings. To suit the abilities and needs of every individual we teach various approaches of classical Hatha. Asana sessions follow either a Hatha (Steady paced, holding of asanas to build strength); or a Vinyasa (movements stitched together for smooth yet challenging transitions to build stamina and endurance) approach. More approaches are being developed to be introduced soon
Yes, while breath and mind are part of every practice at Shvasa, dedicated Pranayama and Mediation sessions are scheduled to complement your body practices. Every session has Asanas, breath practices, and a short meditation. The breath training begins in the Asana practice and deepens in the classical Pranayamas. Short Meditations, which are part of every class, will prepare you to work on the foundational aspects. A dedicated 30-minute meditation session, that is held across the week and led by our experienced meditation teachers, will take your meditation experience to the next level.
Class recordings are available in your account and can be accessed anytime by you. There are also other practice videos that you can access from the dashboard for continuing your practice on days you miss or don't have sessions.
Yes, we do, We have a structured asana practice that has worked for many in overcoming and managing Back conditions, PCOD/PCOS, and in weight management. These asanas have been modified and sequenced based on a clear understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the condition. Our teachers will guide you through these practices while ensuring safety in every step of the way.
Everybody’s body is different. We must learn to understand and accept our own bodies. If you are someone who goes through a lot of pain, practicing during your periods can be avoided. There is no rule to say you should or should not practice during periods. But, if you want to practice you can stick to mild practices, or go as the body allows. However, on other days, you can definitely practice asanas to strengthen your systems and to ensure you have healthy periods.
We have seen that people who practice for a min of 4-5 days a week, derive the maximum benefit faster. Having said that, one must start with a schedule that they can follow easily so as to stay consistent with the practice.
A mix of both Hatha and Vinyasa is mostly recommended. As one builds flexibility, and the other builds strength and endurance. But both styles have a deep impact on the mind as well. However, to understand the right mix of practices, you can choose to go through a private consultation with us. Our counselors / teachers will speak to you to understand your requirements, medical conditions, etc, and accordingly recommend the way forward.
Yoga practices are most beneficial when performed on an empty stomach. However, a minimum of 2 hours gap is advised after having a full/heavy meal. Or, a minimum of 1 hour after a light snack.

This is a subscription and not a one time payment. Yoga works only when you make it a lifelong habit. You learn it in 21hrs, however to become an expert you should aim at doing it for 1,000 - 10,000 hrs which is a lifetime. It's like breathing or eating - a way to live a happy and content life with less ailments and a peaceful mind.
Only one person can make the payment. While sharing with friends you can ask them to transfer the money to you directly. Shvasa is not involved in this.
Yes of course, in fact we recommend it. Having buddies helps you stay accountable and it's also fun. You would each need to book the class with your own individual accounts.
We recommend Duo for 2 accounts and family and friends for more than 2. The cost remains the same as here - https://www.shvasa.com/pricing
The pause feature is for only the primary account. The subscription date is based only on the primary users pause period. If the primary user pauses, all subscriptions will pause. We allow 45days pause for an annual subscription and 21 days for 6 months and 10 days for 3 months. We suggest do not pause for family & friends and duo, it's a small amount of money, do not complicate it. Even on vacation you can try 1-2 classes, will make you more energetic.
