Aadil teaches workshops, intensives and teacher trainings at Yoga Centers and throughout the United States, Europe and Asia.

Aadil has over 38 years of training and is an internationally recognized “teacher of teachers”. An instructor of depth and passion, Aadil creates learning environments that both nourish and challenge, inviting us to practice yoga as a path of soul-awakened living.

The word Purna means “whole” or “complete” and Purna Yoga teaches that to be truly healthy we must care for all aspects of our being: the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Purna Yoga is the complete yoga that includes alignment-based asana, meditation, philosophy, nutrition and lifestyle.

Welcome to a weekend of Purna Yoga with Aadil Palkhivala! Aadil has been immersed in the study of yoga for over 45 years, starting at the age of 7 and achieving the highest certification awarded by BKS Iyengar at the age of 22. Aadil currently lives in Bellevue, Washington teaching Purna Yoga with his wife Savitri. Purna means “whole” or “complete” and Purna Yoga focuses on the evolution of the whole being, not only the physical body, but also the mind, the emotions and the spirit.

During this intensive, Aadil will address the alignment and flow of energy in standing poses, inversions, twists, and backbends. He will cover the Morning Series, Hip Series and Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutations). While the focus will be primarily on the asana practice, attention will also be given to the inward aspects of yoga in daily living, yoga philosophy and practical meditation techniques.

Become more aware of the subtle and deeper aspects of yoga and how to apply these aspects into day-to-day living. Your practice will become more dynamic and deeply gratifying. Come and work with one of the most sought-after teachers in the world!

Ayurveda is the ancient Indian art of healing. The word Ayurveda means the “science of life” and it is much more than the treatment of a person when they are sick; it’s the methodology for the basics of living with practical applications like nutrition and your surroundings. Aadil simplifies this science into an easy to understand concept for you!
