Being a dancer, I always had it in my mind how beautiful our body looks like in different shapes while  practicing yoga. So I started doing yoga to focus on myself, gain some balance and flexibility. 

3. Who are your mentors in yoga? 

I have done Yoga Prabodh (D.Y.Sc) and Yoga Shikshak (D.Y Ed ) from Yoga Vidya Gurukul and right from the beginning of this journey all teachers I have met are my mentors.

The biggest thing I have learnt from them is “Knowing my own body “( I’m still trying to know it) , absorb the knowledge of Yoga properly and try to take this knowledge of Yoga to each and every door step of the society!

I practice 6 times a week. The duration may vary but I make sure that I had enough of stretching and meditation in a day . 

8. How do you implement the other 7 limbs of yoga into your life other than Asana? 

Accepting positivity and throwing away negativity! I often try to implement them in breathing techniques too
