First Private Session
A full assessment of posture, mobility and breath, followed by your first guided practice, shaped to what you arrived with.
Credited in full if you continue to a package.
Request this session →A screen can show you a sequence. It cannot see you. Private yoga and Yoga Nidra in Kuala Lumpur, shaped in the room by how your body is holding the week, across Bangsar, Mont Kiara, Damansara Heights and KLCC.
Most students arrive with one thing that will not settle. Choose the one closest to yours.

The most effective long term medicine is the breath you already have.
For executives and founders whose minds rarely switch off. We work on the breath first, because it is the one lever into the nervous system you can pull yourself, at any hour.

Move without guarding. Rebuild a resilient spine, without studio strain.
For adults past forty who feel the body sending small warnings. Slow, structural Hatha work, sequenced for your back, your joints and the way you sit all day.

Step away from crowded workout classes, into quiet mastery.
For returning practitioners and couples who sense something deeper is missing from studio yoga. Authentic Hatha, Vinyasa and Raja yoga, taught the way it was taught to me.
There is no shortage of yoga online. Thousands of sequences, free, at any hour. What a screen cannot do is notice you.
A screen follows a script.
In the room, I follow your breath. When it shortens or catches, the practice changes.
A screen counts the minutes.
In the room, I watch the quality. The point where effort turns into strain is different for every body, and different every week.
A screen moves at the pace of the video.
In the room, we move at yours. A tired nervous system cannot be rushed into rest.
What you bring matters. A week of meetings held in the shoulders. Three nights of broken sleep. A lower back that has sat through too many flights. I notice these before we begin, and we work from there.
There is also something simpler. A calm person in the room steadies a restless one. You breathe slower because someone beside you is breathing slowly. No recording does that.
This is not yoga learned in a weekend course. It is one practice, kept inside one family and passed down by hand across three generations.
The foundation
A master who taught quietly across India, Japan and Germany, setting the therapeutic and philosophical ground of the practice.
The keeper
His daughter carried the classical discipline forward in Malaysia, keeping the breath and posture work exactly as it was taught to her.
Teaching privately since 2007
The classical Raja and Hatha method of the Gheranda Samhita, shaped into personal practice for working lives and midlife bodies.
You will know exactly what happens, and when, before we ever meet.
We talk about what is troubling you most, your health history, your schedule and where you live. I listen first.
I come to your residence, or meet you online. A full assessment of posture, breath and how your body is holding the week, then your first practice shaped around it.
A steady weekly practice, one to one or as a couple, arranged around your work and your travel. It moves when you do.
I take only a small number of students, so each one has my full attention. Your first session is shaped entirely around you. If, after it, this does not feel like the right practice for you, there is no obligation to continue. If you do continue, the fee for that first session is credited in full toward your package.
Private sessions in your own home across Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya, or live online wherever you are.
Homes outside the four core areas may carry a small travel supplement, agreed before we begin.

Ask about the programme →Have been attending yoga classes with Aman since 2019 before Covid. Aman continued classes online during Covid and was much appreciated when we were stuck indoors. I started attending his class wondering what this 'healing' yoga is, but true to it, other than stretching benefits to release muscle tightness, many specific poses helped with wonky knee, better breathing, improved sugar level, cleared congestion, and started stomach 'burn'. Ask him and he will tell you what to do. I truly look forward to his classes and he is very forthcoming with his knowledge.
Each session of Aman's Healing Yoga is rejuvenating both physically and mentally. It must be his well planned and systematic approach to every lesson, taking also into account the class profile. His lessons have improved my flexibility and balance, and I have learnt breathing techniques that have been beneficial to mind and body. I am blessed to have learnt so much from his classes and I am still learning new techniques at each lesson. Thank you Aman.
I tremendously enjoy my yoga sessions with Aman. He is knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to listen. I've definitely noticed an improvement in my flexibility and overall sense of well-being since starting the sessions with him. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, thoughtful and supportive yoga instructor.
Dedicated yoga instructor who tailors each session according to my health needs. Highly recommended.
Receive Breath & Calm, my free seven day practice. Simple evening breathing, two safe postures and a guided relaxation, drawn from three generations of teaching.
Send to My WhatsApp NowAman Merican teaches private yoga and Yoga Nidra in Kuala Lumpur, working mostly with founders, executives and professionals who are running on empty. He is a third generation teacher with over 18 years of teaching and a 5.0 Google rating. Sessions happen in your home, at his private studio or online.
Yes. Aman Merican teaches private yoga at home across Bangsar, Mont Kiara and nearby areas for people with back and neck stiffness from desk work, travel and stress. He watches how you move and breathe, then builds the practice around what he sees. If you are under medical care, he works alongside your doctor or physiotherapist.
With Aman Merican, a trial session is RM220 and is credited toward a package. Four sessions are RM600, eight are RM1,000, and a 12 week programme of 24 sessions is RM2,880. Couple sessions are RM300 per person. A travel supplement applies outside Bangsar, Mont Kiara, KLCC and Damansara Heights.
Many people find Yoga Nidra, a guided practice of deep rest done lying down, helps them settle before sleep. Research is encouraging but still limited. Aman Merican teaches it one to one, so the pace and length suit how you respond, and so you can practise on your own at night afterwards.
A video cannot see you. In a private session the teacher notices how you hold your breath, which side you favour and when effort tips into strain, then changes the practice in that moment. For a tired or stiff body, that adjustment is the difference between real rest and one more thing to push through.
A studio class teaches the same posture to twenty bodies. A private session is shaped to your nervous system, your injuries, your work pressure, and what you arrived with that day. For chronic stress, sleep issues or anxiety, this kind of attention is the difference between progress and just movement.
I teach private yoga for people carrying chronic stress, restless sleep, anxiety, back stiffness or the tiredness of burnout. It is mostly breath and careful posture, shaped around your situation. It works alongside medical care and never replaces it. I am a yoga teacher, not a medical practitioner.
It depends on the person and how regularly you practise. Some students tell me they sleep more easily within a few weeks; back stiffness usually takes longer. I cannot promise a timeline. What I can promise is a practice shaped around what your body shows me each week.
Yes. Flexibility is a result of practice, never a prerequisite. Most students arrive stiff, stressed, or recovering from something. The practice begins where your body is.
Yes. I offer private executive sessions for individuals and small leadership teams across Bangsar, Mont Kiara, KLCC and Damansara Heights. Sixty minutes, scheduled around your week, entirely discreet. Learn more about executive yoga in KL →
Very little. Enough floor space to unroll a mat. A quiet corner of a living room, study or covered terrace is plenty. If you do not yet have a mat or props, let me know before our first session and I will bring what we need. There is no need to tidy or prepare anything special. The practice fits quietly into your home as it is.
In your home across Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya, mainly Bangsar, Mont Kiara, KLCC, Damansara Heights, TTDI, Bangsar South and Taman Desa. I also teach live online to students in Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, the UK and around the world.
A few short questions. Your answers come straight to me, and I reply personally, usually within a few hours.
Or write to hello@amanmerican.com and paste your details.
When you invite someone into your home, or onto your screen at the end of a twelve hour day, the last thing you need is a loud workout. In my family, from my grandfather Prof. Yogacharya H. A. Rao, to my mother Datin Suleiha, to my own eighteen years of teaching, yoga has always been quiet and precise. We begin with how you are breathing, where your spine is holding tension, and what your nervous system needs tonight. Then we build a practice around your home, your week and your body.
