Namaste Yoga
Namaste is an ancient Indian greeting which expresses love, kindness, and good wishes. Traditionally used at yoga classes to mark their beginning and ending as well as in Hinduism practiced today; today it has also become part of many other Asian spiritual practices.
Namaste has an important place in Indian culture and tradition, yet some teachers opt not to use it out of fear of cultural appropriation; they instead opt for other local expressions of appreciation and respect as an alternative form of acknowledgement and acknowledgement.
Namaste can be said in various ways, but the traditional form involves pressing your hands together and bowing your head. This gesture is an easy and free way to connect with fellow yoga practitioners – plus, it builds stronger connections between people! When saying namaste with an open heart and mind.
