​

Why Choose Yogveda Yoga Teacher Training in Bern?
Founded by Shahid Khan, Yogveda Yoga elevates yoga practice to new heights. Shahid, born in Mumbai, India, began practicing yoga at a young age and later studied with the renowned Iyengar family in Pune. As the former President of the Iyengar Yoga Association in Switzerland, he channeled his extensive experience into founding Yogveda Yoga in 2010 and Yoga University Switzerland. This training in Bern is perfect for participants from Zurich, Geneva, and other Swiss cities seeking a professional program that combines tradition and innovation.

The Yogveda Method: A Revolution in Yoga Practice
The Yogveda method stands out with its use of a patented yoga mat designed by Shahid Khan. This innovative mat supports perfect body alignment, starting from the feet—much like building a stable structure, where precision is key. This method ensures a solid foundation, impacting joints, hips, spine, and shoulders, enabling a deeper, safer practice for yogis in Bern and beyond.

​

About Shahid Khan: A Master of Yoga
Shahid Khan brings decades of experience and dedication to this training. His journey began in India and led to intensive studies under BKS Iyengar. His philosophy merges spirituality with practicality: for Shahid, spirituality is not an abstract concept but a practical path achieved by optimizing body, breath, and mind to unlock the higher self. This wisdom shapes the Yogveda Yoga Teacher Training in Bern, inspiring participants from Lausanne to Luzern.

​

The Importance of Body Alignment
Proper body alignment is crucial for optimal performance in yoga postures, pranayama, and meditation. Misalignments in the feet can affect joints, hips, spine, and shoulders, compromising overall posture. The Yogveda method addresses these issues with precision and effectiveness, focusing on aligning each muscle and joint—a transformative approach for your practice in Bern, Zurich, or Basel.

The Essence of Yogveda Yoga: Practical Spirituality and Alignment
Yogveda Yoga is built on the belief that spirituality is a practical pursuit. To reach the higher self, the method optimizes body, breath, and mind. Before each asana, careful attention is given to aligning every muscle and joint, supported by Shahid Khan’s specially designed yoga mat. This approach makes every practice purposeful and effective, ideal for yogis across Switzerland.

Pranayama with a Professional Touch: Preparing Breath Muscles
Yogveda Yoga elevates pranayama to a new level. Before engaging in breathwork, all breathing muscles—for both inhalation and exhalation—are gently warmed. The involved organs are primed, making pranayama a seamless and transformative experience, which you can bring to your classes in Bern, Basel, or Geneva.
