I approached Sri Prasanna Veeranajaneya Yoga Kendra in 2001, as I was suffering from severe knee
pain and other ailment. Yoga master Nagaraj prescribed me some aasanas, pranayama. Within few
months I was relieved from complete knee pain and other ailments. I attended our yoga classes for
about 4 years. Now, even after 10-12 years I do not have any such problem. I am enjoying good
health with two hours of yoga practice daily. Now Mr Nagesh and other seniors teaches teach and
guide students in the Kendra. Mr Nagesh and other dedicated trainers have has about 20 years
experience and have undergone good training. Your Yoga Kendra is now giving wonderful to

Prasanna Veeranjaneya Yoga Kendra is a unique and extraordinaire center for learning and
understanding Yoga. I am thankful for the Yoga Kendra for helping me to learn the aasanas in a
systematic and step-by-step process. Am so happy to know what movements and exercises help
me. Learning to do the aasanas early in the morning along with the most committed and
dedicated group has helped me in being motivated. The zeal, enthusiasm and encouragement for
everybody is admirable.

I wish to share my experience as below.
Despite of my hectic travel schedule since last one decade I do practice yoga regularly. Almost
one decade back I was suffering from Hernia & Severe lower back pain. When i visited Manipal
hospital, expert doctor suggested me to go through operation for Hernia & Asked me to take rest
for lower back pain which is not curable One day incidentally I saw our Yoga centre at Anjenya
temple and started going there almost regularly. Under the guidance of Mr. Nagesh Sir, I started
practising following asana along with regular surya Namaskara etc 1.Baddhakonasana, 2.
Upvishtakonasna, 3. Ardh Matsendrasana etc.
To my surprise I got completely cured with my Hernia without any operation and my lower back
pain is completely cured. Later I went to see the same doctor who examined me previously to
reconfirm & to my surprise they confirmed Hernia is cured completely. Though my job calls for
frequent travel still I practice many asana and does regular Kapalbhati & Anulom Vilom to keep
myself physically fit.
