My Real Yoga Journey: Practice, Progress & Persistence
Yoga isn't just about the poses you see on Instagram. It’s about the wobbles, the falls, and the discipline to show up. Here is a glimpse into my unfiltered, honest practice.
This is what pure happiness feels like. Practicing Natarajasana, the Lord of the Dance pose, by the sea at sunset. Yoga is not just about the mat, it's about finding balance and peace wherever you are.
Building strength day by day. This is a wall-assisted handstand variation, working on my scorpion pose. The journey to advanced asanas is all about consistent practice and patience. I can guide you through it safely.
Want to do a handstand? Don't just jump into it. This video shows how building a strong foundation with props like yoga blocks is the key. I believe in breaking down complex poses into simple, achievable steps.
The journey to a full 180-degree middle split, or Samakonasana. This video shows my real, unedited progress. It takes time and discipline, but with the right guidance on flexibility, you can get there too.
This is what our online sessions look like. Here, I am guiding a student through the Dhanurasana, or bow pose, showing them how to deepen the backbend safely. You get personalized attention right from your home.
Let's fly! This is the Flying Pigeon Pose, a fun arm balance that builds core and upper body strength. I'll teach you the techniques to lift off, one step at a time.
Keeping it real. These are the unfiltered moments from my practice, including the falls and the wobbles. Yoga is not about being perfect, it's about showing up and trying. This is the journey.
A smile through the stretch. Holding the Compass Pose, or Parivrtta Surya Yantrasana, which is a deep hamstring and shoulder opener. I believe in finding joy even in the most challenging asanas.
About Featured
I don't believe in rushing into advanced poses. Whether it's a handstand or a deep backbend, I use props like blocks and straps to build a safe, solid foundation first. If you’ve struggled with alignment or thought your body just wasn't made for yoga, let me show you how we can break that down, step by step.
People often see advanced asanas and think they are impossible. The truth is that I started exactly where you are, struggling with basic knee push-ups just a couple of years ago.
My Approach to Your Mat
- Props are your best friends: I teach you how to use blocks, straps, and chairs to make difficult poses accessible. These aren't signs of weakness, but tools for better alignment and safer stretching.
- Discipline beats motivation: We don't wait for the 'mood' to strike. We build a routine. My classes, whether online or in-person in Bengaluru, focus on the power of showing up.
- Real-time correction: In my 1-on-1 online sessions, I monitor your alignment via video to protect your lower back and joints. If I’m training you at your home, I use manual adjustments to fix your posture instantly.
What to Expect
Whether we are working on inversions like headstands or mobility for splits, we celebrate the small wins. Perfection is a myth; consistent practice is the reality. I don't just teach you how to bend; I teach you how to move safely so you don't break. Let’s make yoga a part of your daily rhythm, not just a weekend activity.
