About Fitness Instructor Certification
Why I Do This
I live for that rush you get from moving your body and vibing with a group. I want to help others spark that same energy, not just for themselves, but for communities. If you’re looking to step up as a group fitness leader or just want to add something bold like rebel yoga to your skill set, this is for you.
What to Expect
- You’ll train with me for a full day, hands-on and interactive. We dive into Warrior Rhythm™ and Warrior Strength™—one blends yoga, HIIT, and weight training with killer playlists, the other is all about functional training with a fun twist.
- I break down how to coach, cue, and modify moves for all levels. There’s a lot of practice, so you finish ready to actually teach.
- Even after certification, I stick around for mentorship and support. I want you to feel set, not just certified.
Who It’s For
- Fitness pros looking for a different format or to get a group fitness certification in India.
- Beginners who love movement and want to try their hand at teaching—no fancy experience needed.
The Real Perks
- Globally recognized certification, so you can teach anywhere.
- Continuing education for fitness coaches through official credits.
- Access to a global fam that’s always got your back.
- Fresh music, new routines, and a real sense of belonging.
I’m not about picture-perfect; I’m about real people, real sweat, and real connection. Come as you are. Let’s make this fun.

My Story
Hey, I’m Usha. I’m that person who’ll probably dance in the rain and laugh too loud at my own jokes. Always chasing the next adventure - be it a Kerala road trip or a random beach in Thailand. I started Liminal Haven retreats because I’m obsessed with mindful movement and living happy. I switch between fitness avatar and 'not so sanskari' (not-so-traditional) me - life’s all about vibing, growing, and keeping that inner kid alive.
My Work
Group Fitness & Personal Training - I run Warrior Rhythm yoga fusion, Warrior Strength functional training, spinning, plus personal sessions for all levels.
Certified Warrior Instructor Training - Aspiring trainers can join my certified Warrior Instructor Training workshops to level up and teach Warrior formats.
Feel-Good Vibe Sessions - My classes are all about self-acceptance, moving to soulful music, and building a real community. No boring workouts here.
Come As You Are - Beginner or pro, you’re welcome. Move how you want - low impact, high impact, your choice. No comparisons, just inspiration.
Mindful Movement Retreats - Liminal Haven retreats bring together fitness, mindful movement, and good energy for a refreshing experience.
