Yoga for Knee Pain in Australia
Yoga that works around your knees, not over them
Knee pain changes how a person moves long before it stops them: avoiding stairs, sitting on the floor less, standing up from a chair with both hands. This Therapeutic Yoga class is built around keeping the body moving without loading painful joints, with chair support throughout, strengthening for the muscles around the knee and gentle mobility within a comfortable range.

Yoga that works around your knees, not over them
Most yoga classes quietly assume healthy knees: kneeling, deep squats, cross-legged sitting and lotus poses. With arthritis or joint pain, those are exactly what can aggravate things. Here every pose has a chair or standing version, the mentor asks what your doctor or physiotherapist has advised, and anything that hurts is simply replaced.
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.

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
Stronger legs for everyday movements like standing up and walking
Knowledge of which positions to avoid for your knees
More confidence moving with support

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 knee 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.
“Timezone was our biggest worry. Smriti Samskara made it effortless, the Mahabharata class fits perfectly into our London evenings, and the storytelling quality is simply exceptional.”
