Our Iyengar Yoga Studio and Community in Delhi
Yogakshema is my sanctuary in Delhi. It is not just a studio; it is where the practice of Iyengar Yoga meets stillness. Whether you are walking through our garden or stepping onto the mat, you will find the clarity to align your body and calm your mind.
A sanctuary of peace and mindfulness. Our center, Yogakshema, is surrounded by tranquil waters and lush greenery, inviting you to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.

About Our Studio & Community
This studio was built to be more than just a place to practice. When you walk into Yogakshema in Mandi House, you will notice the sprung wooden floors and the specific layout designed for Iyengar props like wall ropes and teak bricks. This environment is not for show; it is a tool. We keep our batches small, typically 15 to 20 students, so that I can see every micro-adjustment you make and ensure you are not just exercising, but truly aligning.
The architecture of Yogakshema is an extension of the practice itself. We designed this space to remove the noise of the city, using high ceilings, natural light, and the surrounding pond to cultivate focus. In the Iyengar method, your environment dictates your mental state; a cluttered space leads to a cluttered mind.
Why the Environment Matters
When you practice in a space designed for precision, your focus shifts inward. The props are not scattered; they are part of the studio's anatomy. Whether you are working on standing poses in our open studio or using the wall ropes for inversions, the infrastructure supports your body so you can go deeper without fear of injury.
A Community of Practice
Beyond the infrastructure, Yogakshema is a community. We celebrate milestones like International Women’s Day by emphasizing Nari Shakti, bringing women together to share the strength and resilience that comes from a consistent practice. It is about creating a space where you are seen, corrected, and supported by a group that understands the value of discipline.
If you are tired of generic gyms or yoga classes where you are just a face in the crowd, this is where you come to learn. You are not here to copy me; you are here to understand the intelligence of your own body.
Nivedita Joshi
I am Nivedita Joshi, and I created Yogakshema to be a sanctuary for those who are serious about their practice. My studio is my laboratory, a place where we use B.K.S. Iyengar’s method to strip away the noise and focus entirely on the intelligence of the body.
