Vision. Experience. Imagination.
The Barkan Method is a style of Hatha Yoga that originated from a rich lineage in Calcutta, India.

With over four decades of experience in the yoga industry, Jimmy has trained thousands of yoga teachers and practitioners worldwide.
Our Approach
Our approach to Hatha Yoga combines the traditional teachings of Ghosh's College of India with modern adaptations to create a unique and transformative practice. We believe that yoga is a holistic practice that combines physical postures, breathing techniques, and meditation to bring balance and harmony to the body, mind, and spirit.
The Barkan Method
Our method is designed to work internally and externally, improving the body's physiological functions, strengthening the joints and muscles, and calming the mind. We believe that consistency is key, and our students can expect to experience a transformational journey that extends beyond the mat.
