about yashna

I believe in revolutionary love and revolutionary work. I work for justice, truth, love, compassion and peace. I do this work through yoga, meditation, art, justice movements and connecting with people.
I have earned a certificate of Yoga Siromani in the Sivananda Yoga tradition and have been teaching yoga since 2002. I first learned the lessons of yoga as a child from my Nana and Nani (grandparents) in India. I have studied with various teachers and styles all over the world, and most recently with Tricia Mickleberry, and Cyndi Lee and David Nichtern.
I believe that the ancient universal teachings of yoga flow through a teacher to the students to be rediscovered. My classes introduce and honor the 5000 year old tradition and depth of yoga philosophy.
My classes are a safe space of love and awakening through intention, affirmation, alignment, variations and joy. All people are welcome and loved.
