Pranayama & Meditation Classes in Kolkata
Learn to breathe on purpose, then learn to sit still
Everyone breathes, and almost no one is taught how. Pranayama is the part of yoga that trains the breath deliberately, slowing it, lengthening the exhale, balancing one nostril against the other, and meditation is what that steadier breath makes possible. This class puts both at the centre instead of leaving them for the last five minutes.

Learn to breathe on purpose, then learn to sit still
A meditation app plays a calm voice and hopes you follow. It cannot tell that you are holding your breath, straining at the top of the inhale or drifting off after a minute. A live mentor watches the breath itself, corrects the count and the posture, and builds your sitting time up gradually so stillness becomes a skill rather than a struggle.
Kolkata parents are, in our experience, the most likely to arrive already reading the epics to their children at home and looking for someone to take the questions further than they can. That is a good starting point and a demanding one, and the discussion-heavy classes — Mahabharata, moral stories — tend to suit these batches best.
Breath and meditation as the main practice, not a closing afterthought
Techniques taught in a safe order, from simple abdominal breathing upwards
Posture for sitting comfortably, on the floor or in a chair
Sitting time built up gradually, from a few minutes to longer sessions
Batch timings for Kolkata
Live classes on IST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST and weekend mornings. Because Kolkata is slightly east, an earlier evening slot often suits families better, and we can arrange it.
Salt Lake, New Town, Ballygunge, Behala and Howrah are where most of our Kolkata families are. We schedule around the Durga Puja weeks rather than running classes into them.
What you walk away able to do
A slower, fuller natural breath through the day
Nadi Shodhana, Bhramari and other pranayama done correctly
A daily meditation habit of ten to twenty minutes

Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us who the class is for
Call or WhatsApp us and say who is joining and where they are starting from. For pranayama & meditation classes that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to their age, body and experience.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with you for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class and batch of ours.
3. Pick a slot that fits your week
We place you in a batch scheduled for IST, around work, family and daily routine rather than across them.
“My daughter used to freeze on stage. After a few months of public speaking classes, she confidently delivered a speech at her school assembly. The mentors are patient and truly gifted.”
