Come practice with me in the Heartland!
I will be teaching on retreat at the extraordinary, serene and rejuvenating environs of Shreyas near Bangalore.
To be able to develop and learn in such incredible surroundings is truly a blessing.

Shreyas is an exclusive retreat which looks to combine fine living with a spiritual touch, Yoga being the principal medium through which we communicate the message of “living life completely”.
At Shreyas, we aim to demonstrate that Yoga can be learnt and practiced by all, irrespective of age, health and faith. We also believe that you do not have to compromise on your creature comforts to get access to authentic teachers and teachings from this eternal, vibrant and universally applicable philosophy. Life is a journey of self-discovery and Shreyas provides the sacred space needed to retreat, reflect and rediscover yourself for a fulfilling, effective and purposeful life.
