About Me

Hi, I am Anandi

A devoted practitioner and teacher of Vajra Yoga, dedicated to helping others discover no-harm way to treat their bodies.

My journey with yoga began over 15 years ago during a period of personal transformation. What started as a physical practice quickly became a doorway to profound inner change. Today, I am honored to share this path with students from all walks of life.

My Philosophy

My practice is based on these ideas: - Do no harm; - Every person's body and therefore practice is different; - By controlling the body, we control the mind

I think I was blessed to be a student of famous Russian and Ukranian yoga teachers such as A. Pakhomov, E. Trostnitskaya, I. Mezhakova and more. Attended visceral therapy and traumatic protection in yoga various seminars.

My yoga journey began at an Ashtanga yoga school. I was drawn to its strength and challenging nature. Over time, however, my appetite for difficulty and my ego's "no pain, no gain" mentality evolved into a search for wisdom and a deeper understanding of the philosophy behind the practice - and the true purpose of the human body. I learned to distinguish what truly matters in yoga from what doesn't, and that shift in perspective transformed my life.

A Personal Note

When I am not teaching, you will find me in nature, hiking trails or sitting by water. I am an avid reader of poetry and philosophy, and I believe that wisdom can be found in the most unexpected places.

I would love to meet you on the mat and be part of your journey. Whether you are taking your first yoga class or deepening an established practice, there is a place for you here.
