It is never too late to improve yourself, and thanks to the ancient Indian teachings, this has become much easier to do. In recent years, yoga has become a popular "sport", which is aimed primarily at correcting the psychophysical state, through intensive concentration of attention. Dozens of establishments open annually in Moscow Region and the capital itself, but it is not always possible to choose a good studio. The review was made up of the best yoga studios in the capital for 2022, the most comfortable, interesting and affordable.

Yoga and its types - the difference in teachings, selection criteria

The question of how to choose a good studio cannot be answered unambiguously. It is important to study what areas of yoga are, and then, based on their description, decide on practical exercises. There are two classes of yoga: traditional and modern. Most institutions adhere to the first category, however, due to the physiological and emotional state of a person, as well as the varying degree of his preparation, modern methods are practiced - simpler than classical directions.

Table - "Types of traditional yoga directions and their differences among themselves"

Name:	The essence of the teaching:	Description:
"Hatha"	unity of purpose and soul: a way to improve physical, psychological and mental health	the teaching is aimed at bodily healing with the help of static postures with elements of breathing exercises and cleansing techniques
"Bhakti"	doctrine of love and devotion to God	classes are related to spiritual practice: meditation, worship, prayer. The course includes listening to texts from the holy letter
"Jnana"	path of knowledge	the purpose of the lesson is self-knowledge, establishing a connection with God, by mastering the information provided by the teacher and the holy letter
"Karma"	path of action	performing prescribed duties to please God
"Rajah"	path of introspection	mind control through meditation

All modern areas of yoga are offshoots of traditional teachings. In order not to make mistakes when choosing a studio, you need to have a general idea of ​​the essence of modern types of yoga.The Hatha direction is very popular, so a few words about its branches.

"Hatha Yoga" and its directions - a brief description

These directions are developed by author's schools and methods. There are more than 40 subsections in Hatha yoga. The most common include:

• "Tray" - a series of physical and breathing practices that are unique to this movement;
• Yoga for old-timers - simple vocabulary, backed up by a simplified general tonic, relaxing asana;
• Yoga "23" - a combination of Hatha yoga exercises, martial arts, sports training, swimming, fitness and freediving;
• "Bikram Yoga" - conducting classes in a tropical climate: rooms that maintain high humidity and temperature.

Also in this category include yoga for weight loss, pregnant women, strength orientation, with dance elements, etc.

Choosing a yoga studio - recommendations

There is a plan according to which it will be easier for a beginner to navigate the choice of an institution. The first thing you should pay attention to is the type of techniques that are taught in the studio. If a beginner in this business has not fully understood all directions, then he can attend a trial lesson, which can be both paid and free (depending on the organization).

The second is the interior. Much depends on the interior environment of the room, it should be comfortable, light and spacious, preferably with ventilation, so that fresh air never dries up. A person should be liberated during classes.

Third, the team. Pleasant friendly interaction should be not only with a mentor, but also with any other person (classmate, attendants).

The fourth is the age limit. Studios can be for a child or adults, as well as a combined type.

Fifth is location.It is advisable to choose an institution near your home or work to make it easier to get around.

Sixth, hours of operation. Studio schedules vary. Classes are held in the early morning, afternoon, evening and after 21:00.

Seventh is the highest mark. A certified studio is one of the main selection criteria. It gives a guarantee that all the techniques taught will not be able to harm the health of the client.

Eighth - reviews. According to the comments of clients, you can give some assessment of the activities of the studio, which will help you understand whether it is worth signing up for classes there.

Ninth - the cost of classes. Not everyone can afford to visit the best institutions, because a huge number of people choose inexpensive studios or those where promotions and discounts are set.
