Hello, I’m Renu!
I first experienced Yoga while in Banaras (Varanasi), India's spiritual capital, on the Ganges' sacred banks.
Can you imagine the scene? I was only eight years, a mere child, full of wonderment. My primary school principal was in his eighties, yet he had the fire and courage of a lion while exuding the insight and serenity of a Himalayan master.
Despite his advanced years, he exuded health, vitality and youthfulness. He has sowed the seeds within me, and I started my lifelong journey to find the secret to eternal life and youthfulness.
Growing up in Dehradun, Rishikesh and Haridwar, I looked for mystics and yogis - curious about sacred symbols, Mantras, and other practices.
My father was a fantastic man. By profession he was an bureaucrat, he used his in-depth knowledge of homoeopathy to cure many chronic illnesses. He taught us that "Health is your greatest wealth" and inspired us to make the right choices concerning our well-being. My sister is a registered and practising Ayurvedic doctor in India.
The asanas and mantras had taken me so far. Yet, it wasn't until I introduced Pranayamas, Kriyas and Mindfulness practices into my daily routine that I reached another level of consciousness.
At this new level, I could take care of all aspects of my being, Physical, Emotional, Mental, Social, Intellectual and Spiritual.
Finding the balance between family life and teaching has always been important. I married the love of my life in 2000, and in 2006, we moved with our daughter to the UK.
I'd love to hear your story and personal journey. To understand your dreams and goals and help you achieve these by working with you to achieve optimal health and fitness.
Namaste
Renu
It was not before I first qualified as a
Professional Yoga teacher in 2004 in India.
On arrival in the UK, I continued to grow and expand my knowledge and teachings by working with some of the world's top teachers and training institutes.
I started teaching regular classes, but my passion has always remained in sharing my experiences and knowledge in Yoga Nidra, Mantra, and Philosophy.
Yoga is for everyone - I believe that from deep within my soul. It provides a complete health and well-being practice far beyond the classroom, supporting our daily lives.
It was never more so in evidence than in 2020 when just before COVID fate has suddenly and inexplicably took my husband from us at the young age of 46. It seemed my whole world was imploding.Yet via these practices, I realised that the Great Mother and Eternal Universe merely revealed to me the impermanence of everything and the illusion (Maya) of the external world.
Every day I feel my husband's presence with me and still supporting us.
What started as a journey of self-discovery has evolved into a deep desire to contribute and give back to society and the yoga community.
