We’re introducing something completely new to Drops! You can now learn Yoga Asanas in… Sanskrit! This language is a classical language spoken in South Asia. It still exists in several religious contexts, pop contexts, and is taught in schools. It is also used in yoga.
Sanskrit is the language originally used in yoga. And while you may learn pose names such as “downward dog”, you may also hear their equivalents in Sanskrit. It depends on the school you attend and how deeply you dive with the practice. But knowing the Sanskrit names of the poses you practice in yoga, helps you better understand the positions and their focus.
Namaste or नमस्ते--that’s the greeting you can use for either Sanskrit or Hindi. And in learning this greeting, you have embarked on your journey to learning some of the Sanskrit language used in yoga. Wasn’t that fast? Are you ready to deep dive? Build your knowledge of the Sanskrit language and the names of asana poses by using Drops. Start learning the most common poses in just 5 minutes a day.

"Love my fun language learning and practice with daily Drops sessions, and monthly Challenges to participate in, and quiz mode to test contextual learning - brilliant! So much thought, consideration and inclusivity has gone into the design and function of this app, I can't praise it highly enough."
"Great little learning app! I've learned at least 5-10 new words in Spanish in my first 5 minutes. Easy to pick up and thorough."
"Great language learning app! It helps you get daily words done in a short amount of time. I would highly recommend using drops to learn whatever language you want to learn."
"What an amazing app! I’ve tried several apps for language learning and I cannot recommend Drops enough. I don’t know how a short Drops session can teach me as much as 1 hour+ of focused use of other apps, it’s like magic."
"Amazing language learning tool. Excellent app for increasing vocabulary in your foreign language of choice. Useful for beginner, intermediate, and advanced learners. The repetition of the words makes them much easier to remember, and without the hassle of making your own flash cards. I have used Drops for two years now and have seen great results."
"Very engaging way of learning Yoruba in a stimulating way. Will be using to learn myself and to teach my child!"
"Less than a week in but using this alone with the popular one babbel working on German. When using just one app I got bored, babbel is not as fun. So using both at once actually let's my adhd do its thing but I still focused since I can switch easily between both apps and work in different areas. Also I like the quick little sessions makes me feel like I actually did something."
"So engaging. I speak Spanish well, but often forget words in conversation that I know I should know. This game is fun and quickly brings back vocabulary I may have put in the back of my brain after not using it for awhile. Case in point: I spent 11 years in construction, then went back to teaching in English and/or Spanish depending on the teacher/student"
