My life’s been a long walk with yoga, from Rishikesh’s holy banks to Swiss mountains and Japanese temples. I find meaning in banyan roots, clay pots, sunrise, even clouds.

That’s my simple truth. ### My work - **What I Offer**: I teach traditional Indian yoga, pranayama, and meditation. Also do online sessions and yoga retreats in Switzerland and India. - **How I Teach**: My style is gentle, slow, and easy. We use breath, simple movements, sometimes mantras like root chakra meditation. - **Practice Details**: We do Nadi Shuddhi breathing, let thoughts go, and move from restless to restful together. - **Who Can Join**: No need to be flexible or an expert. If you’re stressed, can’t sleep, or just want to connect, you’re welcome.
