Surya Namaskar: The 12 Steps, the Breath Count, and How Many You Should Actually Do
The twelve steps with Sanskrit and Hindi names, which step is an inhale, why twelve rounds sometimes means twenty-four, and who should avoid it.
Writing · Karma Yoga, Mansarovar
Plainly written guides from Ritika Khandelwal — what a class in Mansarovar actually costs, what happens in your first sixty minutes, and what yoga may and may not do for a painful back or a PCOS diagnosis. No miracle claims, no filler.
Almost everything here started as a question a student asked at the studio door. Some are local and practical — timings, fees, what to wear. Others are the health questions people search for at midnight and rarely get a straight answer to. Every article is written and reviewed by Ritika, who teaches every batch herself, and every health article says clearly where yoga helps and where you need a doctor instead.

All nine articles fit on this page. More are being written — the next ones are on yoga for weight loss, on yoga for neck and cervical pain, and on what to expect in your very first class.
Where to start
If you are choosing a class, start with the first two. If you arrived with a health question, start with the condition page rather than the article — it is shorter and says plainly whether a class here would suit you.
Reading is not practising
The first class is free, in any batch, opposite Thadi Market in Agarwal Farm, Mansarovar. Mats and props provided; bring loose clothes and water.
