Ashtanga Yoga Classes in JP Nagar
Whether you are building a foundation or deepening your existing practice, join our Mysore-style and Led classes in JP Nagar to find rhythm, breath, and inner stillness.
A look inside our Ashtanga Primary Led class. This guided session helps practitioners learn the sequence and rhythm of the vinyasa system, building heat, strength, and focus as we move together.
The journey to a drop-back is built on months of daily practice and trust. Here, I am guiding a student through the process, ensuring their safety while helping them open their spine and heart. This is a moment of pure joy and achievement.
A few moments from our Ashtanga Led practice, showcasing various asanas like Sirsasana (headstand) and Urdhva Dhanurasana (wheel pose). Each posture is a step in a moving meditation, building strength and flexibility.
The Ujjayi breath is a foundational element of the Mysore practice. Its sound becomes a guide, helping to anchor the mind and build internal heat, which purifies the body and leads to greater resilience and inner peace.
Showing up at 5 AM for a Primary Led class is a testament to dedication. It is a weekly affair where we honor the tradition passed down by our teachers, rejoicing in each breath and movement.
Ashtanga is for everyone, regardless of age or flexibility. In our shala, we adapt the practice to meet you where you are, creating an inclusive environment where all can grow together.
Even when I am back at my family home, the practice continues. Rolling out the mat wherever you are is a reminder that yoga is not confined to the shala; it is a way of life that brings you home to yourself.
This photo board at our shala captures the grace and slowness of the practice. Each black and white image tells a personal story of a yogi's journey, a reminder that this path is unique to each individual.
A memory from a 2015 trip to Mysore, practicing Surya Namaskar on Chamundi Hills at sunrise. The community, or sangha, has always been a source of inspiration, both in Mysore and here in Bangalore.
Surya Namaskar, or Sun Salutation, is the foundation of our practice. This video shows a practitioner moving through the sequence, a way of honoring the sun and igniting the light within.
About Ashtanga Yoga: The Path of Discipline
Waking up for a 5 AM practice is the hardest part, but it is where the real transformation begins. In our Mysore-style sessions, you are not just following a sequence, I work with you individually to adjust your alignment and build a sustainable practice, ensuring you move at a pace that respects your body’s rhythm.
The Ashtanga path is built on consistency. We do not chase poses or perfect aesthetics, we show up to the mat to observe the mind and find steadiness through the breath. Our shala is a space where the noise of the city fades, allowing you to focus on the traditional vinyasa system.
Our Practice Styles
- Mysore Style: This is the heart of our shala. You practice at your own breath pace while I move through the room offering personalized adjustments. This approach allows you to learn the sequence deeply and progress according to your readiness, not by the clock.
- Led Primary Series: Once a week, we move together as a group. This is a rhythmic, energetic session where we synchronize our breath and movement, building heat and discipline. It is a powerful way to understand the correct vinyasa count and find strength in shared silence.
Why Practice Here
We operate as a kula, or community, rather than a gym. You will find that our JP Nagar studio is a place to support and be supported. Whether you are dealing with desk-job stiffness or looking to build serious mental fortitude, the practice is adapted for you. We provide all the props you need—mats, blocks, and straps—so all you need to bring is yourself.
We maintain a traditional calendar with rest days on New and Full moon days, respecting the ancient rhythm of practice and rest. If you are ready to move beyond exercise and commit to a discipline that settles the mind, you are welcome here.

I have been on this path since 2006, learning from my Gurus and wandering the Himalayas to understand that yoga is truly a way of life, not just a workout. My shala is a space where we focus on discipline, breath, and community, moving together through the Primary Series with patience and heart.
