About organizer

I blend my deep connection to traditional Indian wellness practices with a modern approach to yoga. Born and raised in Mumbai, Ayurveda and natural healing were a vital part of my upbringing. As a certified yoga teacher (500 RYT), I teach a variety of styles including Hatha Hot Yoga (26 asanas with 2 breathing exercises), Vinyasa to Yin, 26/2 Yang Yin Fusion, and Gentle Slow Flow. Each practice is designed to help students build strength, flexibility, and inner awareness.
In addition to yoga, I’m an Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor and integrate these ancient healing practices into my teaching. During the retreat, I will also lead an Ayurvedic workshop, sharing practical lifestyle changes to help you align with nature and create balance in your body and mind. My mission is to guide you through a transformative experience, where yoga and Ayurveda come together to nurture both your physical and mental well-being
