About Shiva Yoga

At Shiva yoga, we believe yoga is for everyone. It is our mission to honour and embrace each student’s search for personal growth, wellbeing and fulfillment. ?

Yoga is not just “physical workout”. For many yoga seems physical, but the real promise is a life of inner peace.
Yoga is about balance and it asks tightness to bend and softness to be strong. It challenges the limits of the mind and the body and encourages you to expand your field of awareness.

Why am i passionate about yoga education?
I see yoga as a daily ritual where people tune deeply in to their spiritual center and experience the piece of Eternal Divinity. I was not naturally strong when I first started my yoga, every asana seemed utterly impossible, I had tight hamstrings that which I wasn’t able to place my heals in Inverted V pose, with a small mustard seed of faith I kept practising every day and got stronger. But with consistent practice you get deep connection with your body.

Yoga is a path that reveals the deepest of life’s secrets, a knowledge about the Divine, a path to be known through true self-knowledge.

My personal practice is based in the Ashtanga Yoga method. I have been dedicated to a daily, five days a-week practice for over 15years. Ashtanga literally means eight limbs and is defined by the sacred yogic text, Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras as Yama (moral codes), Niyama (self-purification and study), Asana (posture), Pranayama (breath control), Pratyahara (sense control), Dharana (concentration), Dhyana (meditation) and Samadhi (total peace).

I decided to become a Yoga teacher to help others to become fit and to lead healthier lifestyle & re- discover themselves by deepening their yoga practice. Individually, I always felt love and a desire to serve, but at times I felt lost in the vastness of everything that was evolving.

Yoga put the reigns in my hands, igniting a power that was always present, creating a way to connect those ever fluctuating pieces; a way to tell, feel, and a way to align.​​​​ With yoga, I saw and felt how I was already connected. Without knowing it, I had been contributing all along. This was a powerful and life changing moment.

I’m passionate about yoga and living a holistic lifestyle. I want to share and pass on the sense fullness and entirety it provides. I am grateful and thankful for all the support I’ve had and still have from my students, friends, family, and the community! People need people. Namaste.

The attitude of gratitude is the highest Yoga!

Everyday is yoga day, be it a Sunday or weekday for my students. SYCians practising yoga in the early hours of Sunday:-

*The present moment is the only tangible place in life; connect yourself with everything around you through your body, focusing on the present moment than letting the mind wander to the past or future. Yoga is the point of union of body, mind and soul. Experience this by enrolling yourself at Shiva Yoga Center, Ashok Nagar*
