Whether I’m moving through a flow or sitting in stillness, my practice is rooted in Santosh—that quiet, content feeling inside. ## Photos and videos - [Video: My sister and I created 'Samanayog' as a movement of hope and unity.

When I practice Paschimottanasana (seated forward bend) or flow through a simple Surya Namaskar, it is never about the perfect posture. It is about checking in with my nervous system, noticing where I am holding tension, and using the breath to release it. My goal in every session is to show you that you do not need fancy equipment or advanced poses to find that same sense of groundedness. My journey with yoga started not in a fancy studio, but as a personal need to manage the noise of daily life. I believe yoga is an ancient science that fits perfectly into our modern, often stressful, Bengaluru lifestyle. Whether you are finding me in a studio in Koramangala or joining me for a nature retreat on the outskirts, my philosophy remains the same: movement should make you feel alive, not drained. In my personal practice, I focus heavily on the nervous system. You will often see me practicing Bakasana (Crow Pose) or simple hip-opening flows. These aren't just for photos; they are tools to build focus and release stored emotions. If you feel intimidated by yoga, remember that I started here too. It is okay if you cannot touch your toes yet; we use blocks, straps, and modifications to make the practice work for your body, not the other way around. I often get asked about balancing work and life. My answer is always rooted in Santosh—contentment. It is the simple practice of being present. When I teach, I bring in elements of sound healing, Pranayama (breathwork), and restorative postures to ensure you leave feeling more settled than when you walked in. If you are looking for a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without the pressure to perform—I invite you to join my sessions. Let's move, breathe, and find that inner stillness together. ## About Sreya Bhar I’m Sreya. I started Samana Yog because I wanted to create a space where healing feels like a conversation, not a clinical session. My practice is for everyone, regardless of your age, fitness level, or whether you think you are flexible enough. I am here to help you move, breathe, and find a little more peace in your day.
