Meet Yamuna: A Journey of Wholeness, Healing, and Transformation

Yamuna’s path in yoga began over two decades ago, in 2003. What started as a personal practice has since blossomed into a life-long dedication to the holistic science of yoga. With an E-RYT 500 certification from Yoga Alliance International, she has been teaching since 2015, blending her unique expertise as both a healer and a guide.

Before immersing fully in the world of yoga, Yamuna spent 11 years training as a medical doctor in the UK, specializing in Radiology. Her medical journey has given her a profound and unparalleled understanding of the human body. From dissecting cadavers to interpreting complex imaging studies like X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, she has seen the intricacies of anatomy, physiology, and disease from every angle. This in-depth knowledge has shaped her approach to yoga—where every posture, every breath, is informed by a keen understanding of the body’s inner workings.

Yet, it wasn’t until she delved deeper into yoga, meditation, breathwork, and energy healing that Yamuna completed the picture of human health. Her medical background intertwined with her deepening connection to the subtle body—the energetic, emotional, and spiritual layers we all carry within. This fusion of science and spirituality allows her to offer a practice that truly honors the whole self.

For the last decade, Yamuna has lived a nomadic life, sharing her teachings across the globe. From Europe to Australia, Thailand to Bali, and India, she has facilitated retreats, workshops, and teacher training programs that inspire transformation. Her understanding of both the tangible and intangible aspects of health infuses each of her offerings with an intuitive sensitivity that deeply resonates with her students.

In her teachings, Yamuna draws from a vast well of practices: Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Restorative, Yin, Somatics, Iyengar, Breathwork, Kriya, Pranayama, Meditation, and trauma awareness. Every class is designed to meet students where they are—whether they seek strength, healing, or spiritual growth. She ensures that each practice is not only relevant but also profoundly nurturing and balancing.

More recently, Yamuna’s connection to the Bhakti tradition has deepened. Throughout the pandemic, she offered community Kirtan in India, using devotional chanting to open hearts and cultivate trust and faith—the healing medicine of the soul.
