Yoga is not just about the poses. It is about the mentors, the lineage, and the quiet moments of learning that ground me every single day.

## About Additional Moments

My path has not been a straight line. Learning under the guidance of my Art of Living teachers and receiving wisdom from Gurudev has fundamentally shifted how I teach. It is not about perfecting a pose, but about the lineage and the intention behind the movement that makes all the difference in my classes. If you are looking for a teacher who keeps it real, let's talk.

When I lost my corporate job and later fractured my ankle, I realized that physical flexibility is secondary to the flexibility of the mind. My teachers, especially those within the Art of Living lineage, taught me that practice is not a performance. It is a way to handle the messiness of life, from managing corporate burnout to navigating the physical challenges of pregnancy.

### Why I share my moments
People often ask me why I post about my personal sadhana or my time with mentors. It is because I want you to know that I am a student first. I do not have all the answers. Sometimes I struggle to sit still, and sometimes I have to remind myself that 'Jo mil jaye acha hain, jo na mile woh bhi acha hain!' (What you get is good, what you don't get is also good!).

### My teaching philosophy
My classes are built on this honest foundation. Whether we are doing prenatal flows or desk yoga for stress, I strip away the 'Instagram' pressure. We focus on:
- **Breathwork over fancy poses:** Because your nervous system needs calm, not a complex posture.
- **Real-life alignment:** I teach you how to move your body in ways that support your daily life, whether you are dealing with pregnancy symptoms or long office hours.
- **Mentorship:** I bring the wisdom I have gathered from my own teachers into our sessions so you feel supported beyond just the physical exercise.

If you are tired of generic classes that feel like a workout without a soul, you are in the right place.

## About Swati

I wasn't born zen, and I definitely didn't start this journey knowing it all. I am just a student who keeps showing up, sharing the lessons that pulled me through my own corporate burnout, hoping they help you find your ground too.
