    Gargi Ghugare

    FOUNDER

    Gargi is a Vinyasa Yoga teacher whose work is shaped by over 15 years of training in Bharatanatyam, a classical Indian dance form rooted in rhythm, breath, and embodied storytelling. This foundation deeply informs her teaching, bringing precision, fluidity, and a meditative quality to movement.

    She has taught and hosted retreats internationally, including teaching Yoga in Namibia and Nicaragua, and draws inspiration from travel, culture, and sustained self practice. Gargi is a dedicated student of Advaita Vedanta, and her classes reflect a contemplative approach where Asana becomes a form of inquiry.

    Her teaching blends Asana, Pranayama, meditation, and philosophy, inviting students into Yoga as movement meditation rather than performance.
