My Daily Yoga Practice: Asanas and Flows for Strength
The mat is my sanctuary. Here is where I explore Hatha and Ashtanga flows, grounding myself so I can guide you better in our shala.

About this collection
My practice isn't about nailing a perfect inversion. It is about the years of consistent preparation and breathwork required to get there safely. When you see me in these flows, remember that every movement is built on the same alignment principles I use to guide my students in our Mulund studio.
For me, the yoga mat is a laboratory. It is where I test, refine, and experience the asanas before bringing them into our group sessions at Kaya Yoga Studio.
My personal flow is a blend of Hatha stability and the dynamic movement of Ashtanga. When you look at these photos, you are seeing the 'alignment first' philosophy in action. Whether I am transitioning into a scorpion pose or finding balance in a headstand, my focus remains on the spine. If your spine is happy, your practice will be sustainable.
I encourage all my students, whether you are a complete beginner or an advanced practitioner, to view your own practice this way—not as a performance, but as a path to self-love. We do not just do yoga to get bendy. We do it to quiet the mind, build genuine strength, and connect with our breath.
If you are looking for a community in Mulund West that values technique, anatomy, and spiritual growth, come join us at our shala. We offer everything from beginner Hatha classes to intensive alignment workshops, ensuring you have the support you need to build a lifelong practice.
