Ashtanga yoga is a journey from effort to effortless. It masterfully teaches us devotion, determination, development, discipline and detachment, which combined lead to the freedom of life. On the path of yoga, i experienced and continue to experience the freedom of life.

Thank you guru ji for your blessings & for sharing your in-depth knowledge of yoga and bringing light to our life. You guide us with a tool unparalleled to anything that brings balance, a good lifestyle, protection from negativity of mind and also can combat multiple diseases.

Words cannot describe the feeling of the last two months in Mysore 2022. I certainly experienced a huge change within me on a physical, mental and spiritual level since my first trip.

Now it's time for me to spread the traditional knowledge and to grow and expand as a teacher.

Finally, I want to thank my Family, Friends and my Mentors, whom without them, my journey would not have been possible.

My life is rooted in my passion for yoga and I intend to continue to cultivate and honor its truth.

Special thanks to ❤️

Stillness in motion—that’s when dance becomes meditation and true yoga happens

Years on the mat didn’t just teach me poses—they taught me how to dance with awareness, tune into the rhythm around me, and find the clarity to know what to hold onto and what to drop. That’s real life, and that's real yoga.

From compression to flight to complete extension—this 3-step advanced transition takes absolute core control and shoulder stability.

📍 The Sequence:
1️⃣ Eka Hasta Bhujasana (Elephant Trunk)
2️⃣ Eka Pada Koundinyasana II
3️⃣ Ganda Bherundasana (Chin Stand)

💡 Save this reel for your next advanced practice day, and send this to a yoga friend who loves a good arm-balance challenge.

Building the ultimate "float" from the ground up! 🚀 In my latest workshop, we broke down how hand strength, active shoulders, and deep bandha compression are the secret to effortless jump-backs, jump-throughs in ashtanga yoga practice, and handstands.

Here are the 4 essential pillars we drilled

Hand & Wrist Strength: Conditioning the forearms and wrists to securely support and absorb your full body weight.

Arm Integrity: Activating the upper limbs to maintain a rock-solid, stable foundation.

Hips & Psoas Power: Unlocking the deep hip flexors to lift and glide the legs cleanly through the center line.

Bandha Compression: Engaging Mula and Uddiyana Bandhas to create an internal lift and compress the torso for that weightless hover.

Handstand Prep: Try this drill (3 sets of 15 reps)

Build bulletproof shoulders and the core control your handstands have been begging for 🛠️✨

This dolphin-to-chin-touch drill is an absolute game-changer for building scapular stability, upper body endurance, and the exact strength required for a solid press.

Note: Stay in your dolphin shape the entire time—no dropping into a low plank

Copy-pasting trends is fine, but let’s make this one actually mean something. Let's learn together and grow together 🧠⚡️

Do you know what happens to your body when you flip upside down?

When you invert into a handstand, your spine decompresses as gravity's load reverses, circulation shifts to support your upper body, and your nervous system engages every stabilizer from your fingertips to your core.

Let's start a new kind of trend where we actually share knowledge, learn together, and grow together instead of just copying blindly.

Want to join the movement?

Want to unlock your handstand? Stop fighting your balance and start doing this 👇

True strength and stability don’t come from force, but come from breath

The High Plank Bird-Dog is a complete-body powerhouse designed to strengthen your

1. Core for deep abdominal stability

2. Glutes to protect the lower back and power your practice

3. Shoulders & Arms to build the foundational endurance you need for advanced arm balances and floating into handstands.

Save this to your practice library, drop your questions in the comments, and share this with your practice buddy🧘‍♂️✨

Do you think you only need arm strength for a solid handstand? That is entirely incorrect! 🙅‍♂️

If you are struggling to make your handstand perfect, want to correct your alignment, or are feeling a lack of core and back-body engagement, you need to try these two drills!

I recently taught this exact transition at my handstand workshop in Rishikesh

The Drill:
👉 Here is exactly why this combo works:

Hollow Body: Locks the ribs in, engages the anterior core, and kills that "banana back" arch.

Superman Hold: Wakes up your posterior chain and fires the glutes so your legs don't pull you out of balance.

👉 Go for 3 sets of 5-10 rolls.

Have you tried linking these two holds before? Let me know how your core feels after trying this in the comments! 👇
