About

Yoga, for me, is way more than just moving into different shapes. I look at traditional Hatha as a kind of moving meditation - a way to slow down those nonstop thoughts and actually feel connected, not just to yourself, but to something bigger. Lord Shiva is the OG (original) Guru for yoga, and that spirit is a big part of how I practice and teach.

My Yoga Journey

I didn’t start out flexible or strong, honestly. I was one of those people who thought, "yeh pose toh kabhi nahi hoga mere se" (this pose is never going to happen for me). After years in a corporate job, I just kept practicing, even on days I didn’t feel like it. So if you think you’re not the yoga type, trust me – I get it. Yoga is mostly about showing up, again and again.

What to Expect in Class

• We start with basic postures, building strength and flexibility, and always tuning into what your body actually needs.
• Breathwork techniques for stress relief are a regular part of our sessions. Pranayama really helps calm the mind and give you that extra energy.
• Meditation and sometimes a bit of sound healing with Tibetan singing bowls to help you actually switch off and let go.
• As you get comfortable, we’ll try new things together – arm balances, inversions, deeper backbends. Always step by step.

Our Space

My studio in Sanpada is peaceful, full of good energy, and feels sacred. There’s a mural of Lord Shiva – the whole vibe is calm so you can focus on your practice.

Aum Namah Shivaya. Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu.
