Separate doors.
One house.

Yoga, meditation, pranayama, vastu, astro, ayurveda, retreats and healing, and sound healing mantra. Eight paths of practice, brought together under one roof — not eight versions of one thing, but eight things that have always been kept by different people. Every door is open. Some have nobody behind them yet, and say so when you walk through; if one of them is yours, it is open to you first.

प्रश्न

Questions
worth asking

Answered plainly, including the parts that are not finished yet.

What does "certification checked" mean here?

A person reads the teacher’s certificate before anything of theirs can go live. Not a logo, not a self-declaration — an administrator opens the document, checks it against the name, and records who decided. Until that happens the teacher cannot be found in search, cannot publish a class and cannot take a booking. It is a gate, not a badge.

Do I need an account to look, or to choose a time?

No. Searching, reading a teacher’s page, and holding a time all work without one. You are asked to make an account at the moment you pay, because a booking has to belong to somebody. Asking before you know what you want is asking in the wrong order.

How does paying work?

You scan a QR with any UPI app. The amount and a reference we generated are already on it, which is how your payment is matched to your booking rather than guessed at from the amount and the time. You press "I have paid", and a person checks it against that reference — usually within the hour. Your time stays held for two hours while that happens.

Why is a person checking the payment instead of a gateway?

Because there is no payment gateway yet, and we would rather say so. It means confirmation is slower than you may be used to and completely deterministic: nothing is confirmed on a claim nobody matched, and a payment cannot be attached to the wrong booking. A gateway is coming; the reference-matching stays either way.

What if I cannot come?

A day or more before the class and you get the whole thing back; less than a day and it is half; inside four hours, nothing. You do it from your own booking, and the page tells you the amount before you decide — nothing is guessed at afterwards. The place goes straight back to whoever wants it. A person still moves the money out, because there is no gateway yet, so give a refund a day or two to appear.

What happens if the teacher cancels?

You are refunded in full, whenever it happens. Their timing is not your problem.

How do I join an online class?

The teacher shares one link for the class. It opens YOG Union Studio, or their own meeting, from fifteen minutes before the class begins, and only if you booked it. It does not open earlier than that.

What will you send me?

A confirmation, a note the day before, and a reminder an hour before. That is all. There are no streaks, no badges, no red dots, and nothing that tells you off for stopping for a while.

I teach. What do I need to sign up?

Your certificate, a few sentences about how you teach, your hours, and a UPI address to be paid at. A person reads the certificate before your classes go live. On the pathways that charge for it there is a one-time ₹1 review fee, which pays for that reading and is not refunded if the answer is no — the reading happened either way. Several pathways charge nothing.
