About Me:

I have been practicing asanas for almost six years, trained in artistic, classical and ashtanga yoga asanas. Graduated from The Yoga Institute Mumbai, world’s oldest yoga school, in April 2011. The three months of my teacher trainings I learned the limitations and the power of human mind. The path that I choose to inculcate Yoga in my life was by practicing swadhaya. Thereby increasing awareness about self and also my surrounding. I truly believe in the Eight Fold Path that states that yoga starts by controlling our mental limitations in terms of attitude and behavior and this is followed with asanas and pranayamas. My goal is to put all my Tapa, that is physical effort with asanas and pranayamas to balance my mind. A well balanced mind leads to a tranquil, happy balanced life.
Along with yoga I have completed my certificate course in nutrition for Ashworth College, USA. Being an ardent dance lover, I have been practicing jazz, contemporary and ballet and have attended various workshops at Broadway Dance Center, NYC and New York City Ballet.
Yoga, the “yuj” of mind, body and soul. Initially one has to train the gross part of ourselves, that is our body. Asanas helps in inculcating discipline in our body. In order to go inward, we need to manage our “prana”, bio energy by controlling our breath with pranayama.
With a disciplined body and controlled prana it is easier to control the mind, the monkey that is always distracted. Thus Yoga is “Cittavritti Nirodhah” modification of the mind (Patanjali Yoga Sutra ). With the mind in control one controls all the negative behavior, attitude and habits thereby leading to metamorphosis of the soul into a full blooming and free butterfly. Thus “as the mind, so the man”. So lets begin the study of Yoga.
