Important Notice
The shala has been shifted to a new place which is on the other end of the same street where the old shala stood. Please follow the map to find the way.
- Only the teachers listed in the Prana Vashya Yoga web site are authorized and certified to use the name and teach PVY. This is to maintain the integrity of PVY and for the protection of its practitioners.
- It has come to our attention that some non-certified and non-qualified individuals are claiming to be Vinay's assistants and are interacting with the dedicated yoga students who come to Mysore to study with us.
- PVY is a powerful and effective yoga whose benefit can be profound if practiced properly. Neither the PVY shala nor Vinay will be held responsible for any injury, loss or damage incurred from non-certified teachers. You are welcome to contact us for any clarification.
