GROW BIG. GROW SMALL. GROW BEAUTIFUL. SHIFT SHAPE WITH GARUDA

The mythical Garuda bird appears in Hindu and Buddhist legends, magically changing its physical shape to suit its functions. Whatever strength it needs to gain or give, it creates. Imagine if you could do that too.

James D’Silva mixes a palette of pilates, dance, yoga, and other bodywork techniques to form an astonishingly beautiful exercise system called The Garuda. Explore the wonderful matwork routines. Check out the extraordinary Garuda Apparatus, designed to deliver limitless possibilities of movement to produce stronger, more toned muscles, better coordination, greater pliability, and cardiovascular conditioning.

Unique in its flexible precision, Garuda incorporates breath work, focus, strength work, and grace that makes you feel your body for the work of art that it is.

D’Silva is a joy to watch and to train with. Madonna, Sting, Trudie Styler, and Gwyneth Paltrow are some of D’Silva’s more famous Garuda fans.

While few can approach his own personal mind/body mastery, D’Silva has managed to develop a teaching routine that lifts you to a higher plane each time you practice, no matter who you are or where you are starting from. We’ve become addicted to this new mind/body treat. We stand taller. We are stronger. We move in lean glides and arabesque bends. We feel calmer and more focused. We become new forms of ourselves.
