Yoga for Back Pain in Australia
Careful yoga for a back that has had enough of sitting
A stiff lower back is often the long bill for years of chairs, car seats and sofas: tight hips, a weak core and a spine that has forgotten how to move in every direction. Our Therapeutic Yoga track works on that pattern slowly, with a mentor who knows your history before you roll out the mat and who leaves out anything your back should not be doing.

Careful yoga for a back that has had enough of sitting
Search for back-pain yoga and you will find videos full of deep forward folds and strong twists, exactly the movements someone with a disc problem may be told to avoid. A generic video cannot ask what your doctor said. A live mentor can, and builds the session around it, choosing supported, pain-free ranges over impressive shapes.
Australia runs four and a half to five and a half hours ahead of India, which turns out to be the friendliest gap of all. An early evening class in Sydney or Melbourne is the middle of the Indian afternoon, so weekday batches are genuinely easy rather than a compromise.
Your back history and medical advice collected before the first class
Poses chosen and modified for disc and sciatica concerns, with risky ones left out
Desk-posture habits taught alongside the practice, not only on the mat
Small live batches so the mentor watches every movement of your spine
Batch timings for Australia
Live classes on AEST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 5:00 to 7:30 PM AEST is our main Australian window and it works for Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra alike. Perth families are three hours behind the eastern states and take an earlier slot. Daylight saving shifts are handled by us, not by you.
Melbourne and Sydney account for most of our Australian families, with Brisbane and Perth growing. Several families found us through the Bharatanatyam community that Nrithyakshetra, our parent academy, is part of.
What you walk away able to do
Better awareness of how you sit, stand, bend and lift
A stronger, steadier core that supports everyday movement
Knowledge of which movements to avoid or modify for your back

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 yoga for back pain 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 AEST, around work, family and daily routine rather than across them.
“Living in California, we worried our kids would lose their roots. The online Shloka and Gita classes changed that. They chant every morning now, and understand what the words mean.”
