In most yoga centres one can see pergolas as a sacred place to practice. Pergolas are now available in all shapes and sizes and can be placed at any location namely, terraces, gardens, hostels, colleges, office compounds or even malls.

These pergolas can be customized as per the design needed or the dimensions specified. They can be closed with windows or with bamboo blinds to protect against sunshine or rain. These pergolas can now be designed in a modular format to make things better.
