My Journey into Yoga
My journey into Yoga began in the traditional Gurukula system under the guidance of my Guru, Dr. Ramachandra Bhatt, Chief Acharya of Veda Vijnana Gurukulam and former Vice-Chancellor of SVYASA Yoga University, Bangalore.
Veda Vijnana Gurukulam is a Vedic-Yogic monastery where students study, speak, and live in Sanskrit. Sacred texts are not merely read — they are studied in their original language and lived through disciplined practice. This traditional immersion shaped the foundation of my understanding of Yoga as a holistic science of life.

Approach to Teaching
My teaching integrates classical scripture, disciplined practice, Sanskrit study, and lived experience. Yoga is presented not merely as a physical discipline, but as a complete path encompassing Asana, Pranayama, Meditation, Darshana (philosophy), and self-inquiry.
The intention is not only to certify teachers, but to nurture practitioners who embody steadiness, clarity, and responsibility - both on and off the mat.
Jayacharya (Jaiprakash Singh) is a dedicated Yoga teacher who blends traditional discipline with a strong understanding of anatomy and lived experience. His teaching style is grounded, insightful, and approachable — combining intensity with simplicity.
Early Life & Ashram Foundations
Yoga has been part of Jayacharya’s life since childhood. Spending extended periods in an ashram environment, he gradually transitioned from casual exposure to committed practice and seva. For over 12 years, he consciously offered service in the ashram, absorbing the rhythm of mindful living.
His spiritual foundation was shaped through participation in bhajans, kirtans, satsangs, kathas, and Vedanta discussions under the guidance of monks and teachers. This early immersion cultivated both discipline and a contemplative approach to life.
Education & Life Journey
Alongside ashram life, he completed a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and worked with corporate companies and startups. He also trained as a professional boxer for two years. A physical injury became a turning point, redirecting him fully toward Yoga and self-inquiry.
Subsequent travels across India and the Himalayan regions of India and Nepal exposed him to diverse streams of Yoga and Tantra traditions, deepening his personal practice and expanding his perspective.
Yoga Practice & Teaching
After recovery, Jayacharya returned to Hatha Yoga and later immersed himself in Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, steadily progressing through the Intermediate Series.
At Samyak Institute of Yoga & Ayurveda, he guides students in:
• Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga (Mysore & Led Classes)
• Vinyasa Flow practices
• Asana alignment and anatomical awareness
• Strength-based progression with mindful control
Teaching Approach
Jayacharya’s teaching reflects balance - intensity supported by awareness. Drawing from traditional practice, anatomical understanding, and personal transformation, he encourages students to cultivate steadiness rather than performance.
His sessions are disciplined yet supportive, helping students build strength, resilience, and internal balance through consistent practice.
Nagendra Hegde is a traditionally trained Yoga Acharya and Vedanta scholar dedicated to transmitting the classical wisdom of Yoga through disciplined practice and scriptural depth.
Traditional & Academic Training
Nagendra underwent seven years of immersive study in the Gurukula system at Veda Vijnana Gurukulam, where Sanskrit was the living medium of learning. In this traditional monastery environment, he studied Yoga, Vedanta, Veda, and Darshana under direct guidance and later served as an Acharya, teaching within the same institution.
In addition to his traditional training, he holds:
• Bachelor’s degree in Yoga and Consciousness
• Master’s (Vidwat) degree in Sanskrit
This combination of Gurukula immersion and academic study gives him both experiential depth and scholarly clarity.
Teaching Experience
Nagendra has taught Yoga and Sanskrit in various institutions across India and internationally, including Bangalore, Vizag, and Om Yoga & Wellness Hub in Vietnam. His teaching integrates structure, precision, and a strong grounding in classical philosophy.
At Samyak Institute of Yoga & Ayurveda, he guides students in:
• Hatha Yoga
• Ashtanga Vinyasa
• Vinyasa Yoga
• Kriyas and Shatkarma
• Pranayama practices
He teaches in both 200-hour and 300-hour Teacher Training programs, offering a balanced approach that connects physical discipline with philosophical understanding.
Workshops & Contributions
Nagendra has conducted workshops on personality development and yoga-based stress management, integrating physical practice with mental and spiritual refinement.
His study of Indian Logic (Tarka Shastra) earned him the prestigious “Manorama” award, and his excellence in Sanskrit oratory was recognized at the state level in the traditional Shalaka Pareeksha competition.
Teaching Approach
Nagendra’s approach reflects the traditional Gurukula spirit — precise, methodical, and rooted in authenticity. His sessions emphasize disciplined practice, clear alignment principles, breath awareness, and scriptural context, helping students experience Yoga as a complete path rather than a physical exercise alone.
Siddappa Hebasur is a dedicated and experienced Yoga teacher with over a decade of committed practice and teaching. Rooted in traditional ashram training and strengthened through academic study, his approach blends discipline, therapy-oriented awareness, and practical clarity.
Background & Training
Originally from Savadatti in Karnataka, Siddappa’s journey into Yoga began in an ashram environment, shaping his foundation in disciplined living and consistent practice.
In 2012, he underwent intensive training at Arogya Yoga Center and later completed a comprehensive 500-hour training at Mysore Vivekananda Yoga Education and Research Institution. His academic qualifications include:
• Diploma in Yoga Education
• Postgraduate Diploma in Yoga Education
• Bachelor’s Degree in Yoga (Himalayan Garhwal University)
He is a certified Yoga Teacher accredited by the Ministry of AYUSH, Government of India.
Teaching at Samyak

• Hatha Yoga
• Ashtanga Yoga
• Vinyasa Yoga
• Asana Clinics & Alignment Workshops

International Experience & Recognition
Siddappa has taught internationally, including at PDP Yoga Studio and OM Yoga & Wellness Hub in Vietnam. His inclusive teaching style accommodates beginners and advanced practitioners alike.
His dedication to practice has earned him titles such as “Yoga Siri” and “Yoga Bhushan.” He has also set two Vietnam Book of Records achievements in 2016 for:
• 1008 rounds of Surya Namaskara
• Longest Yoga Marathon with Sun Salutations
Teaching Approach
Siddappa’s teaching emphasizes steady progression, correct alignment, and therapeutic sensitivity. His sessions are structured yet supportive, encouraging students to build strength with awareness and practice with consistency.
He brings a grounded, disciplined energy to the classroom, helping students integrate physical precision with breath control and mental focus.
