A Holistic Path to Healing
At Tara Mitra Yoga School, Yoga therapy is a holistic and individualised approach to physical, mental and emotional well-being. Offering an integrated, alternative to conventional treatments, empowering individuals to address health concerns naturally through tailored practices rooted in the profound wisdom of the Krishnamacharya lineage.
Many are drawn to yoga therapy as a way to explore non-invasive, holistic solutions that go beyond the limits of pharmaceuticals or clinical interventions. Tara specializes in identifying the underlying causes of discomfort and creates personalized programs to alleviate symptoms, support healing, and restore balance. At its core, yoga therapy offers tools to help “digest” life’s challenges—both internal and external—while fostering resilience and vitality.
What is Yoga Therapy
Yoga Therapy is a personalized approach to wellness that empowers you to unlock your body’s natural ability to heal and thrive. By combining ancient wisdom with modern understanding, it addresses not just physical ailments but also mental and emotional well-being. Whether you are seeking to manage pain, reduce stress, or improve overall health, yoga therapy offers holistic, non-invasive tools tailored to your unique needs.
Yoga Therapy integrates movement (asana), breathing exercises (pranayama), meditation, and lifestyle adjustments to address physical, emotional, and spiritual health. This approach balances the body and mind relieving symptoms, supporting medical conditions, promoting prevention, optimizing health, and improving your overall quality of life.

One-to-One Classes
All classes are one-to-one, offering a personalized approach to yoga tailored to your unique needs. It is recommended to begin with a minimum of three months to see meaningful progress, though the duration can be adjusted based on your goals. Sessions can be scheduled weekly, biweekly or spaced out as needed- whether multiple times a week or every few weeks.
The process starts with an initial session to assess your overall state, followed by 2-3 sessions to refine and create your practice. From there, we can adjust the frequency to maintain and build upon your established practice, ideally meeting weekly for a minimum of three months for lasting results.
