Factors such as personal health, lifestyle, consistency of practice, and individual circumstances all influence each person’s experience.

For this reason, Eternal Yogalaya makes no guarantees regarding results or benefits.

7. Yoga Practice Disclaimer

Yoga is a physical activity involving movement, stretching, balance, and strength.

Although our instructors prioritize safe instruction and encourage modifications, participation carries inherent risks.
