1. ) I would like to have a better understanding of the Hindu culture and teachings. I have always been interested in meditation and yoga so I feel it will only help me to understand where these teachings come.

2.) I want to become physically fluent in moving from pose to pose as well as work on remembering to breath.

3.) I would like to be able to use meditation as a way to completely block out the world around me and only focus on the meditation. I have done meditation before but there is always some kind of mental distraction that hinders me from achieving a decent meditation session.
