M padmanaban Health Yoga Teacher
4 Reviews

Trained by Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram in the holistic application of Yoga for health benefits, I conduct both group and individual classes
I do an assessment of student's needs and design a course based on this. The course typically integrates body postures, breathing techniques(pranayama) and aligning the mind.
I believe in Yoga for all irrespective of limitations of ability, time and place.
Typically the course sheet with line drawings is shared with students for their own practice on non class days and future use. My students have consistently given me five star rating which can be verified in other similar apps/sites.

A Great Mentor One Can Ever Wish For

I would say it is my fortune to have found Padmanaban (Paddy) Sir through Teacheron platform. He is extremely competent, thoroughly professional and very sincere in his approach to teaching. His patience, calm demeanor and attention to detail is an ideal blend of qualities that makes him a great Yoga teacher. When I reached out to him to learn Pranayama, he made me understand that without learning asanas first, learning Pranayama standalone will have limited value. I followed every instruction, every spoken word and every gesture from him and I am already seeing the fruits in less than two months. My body is more flexible and agile than ever before. I don't torture my lungs anymore with breath holding practices that earlier I thought was a proud symbol of my lung capacity :). He made me realize that the breath needs to be felt and observed and it should flow freely and naturally like a river, not to be controlled like a pet animal :) Paddy sir even come near his camera to watch me perform asanas and instantly correct me whenever I do it wrong. I couldn't ask for a better teacher. As always, he says, watch your breath, don't force it, it should go and come gentle like a breeze. My life (and health) has turned into a breeze after becoming his student.

Highly recommended!

I’ve had the pleasure of learning yoga and pranayama from Mr. Padmanabhan who is incredibly patient and thorough. He takes the time to ensure i understand every movement, providing clear, step-by-step instructions. His classes are well-structured, and he explains the purpose behind each pose and breath, which deepens the practice. His attention to detail and ability to adjust each posture for individual needs is impressive. His calm and thoughtful approach makes his classes highly enriching and impactful. Highly recommended!

A very knowledgeable instructor.

Mr. Padmanabhan is an extremely professional and a knowledgeable yoga tutor. He understands the problem well, very patiently explains how he will solve it and carefully teaches the asanas. He also gives the scientific reason behind each asana and how it helps one. Above all he is a very humble person. I’m very happy to have been under his tutelage and highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn yoga.

Excellent Yoga/Pranayama Instructor!

Mr. Padmanaban is an excellent yoga and pranayama trainer. He is very professional and highly experienced when it comes to training asanas and pranayama. He was exactly what I was looking for in learning pranayama/breathing exercises. It's a tough subject to teach and finding a good instructor is not easy after searching, but I truly lucked out and found Mr. Padmanaban. I highly recommend anyone looking to learn yoga or pranayama from him. We did online video calls and the reception and clarity of the call was perfect which is also a plus point!
