Core Members
Born in India, raised in the US, Anu has a been passionate about practicing living yoga as a lifestyle. Her classes include incorporating multiple aspects of yoga such as asana, meditation, breathwork, yogic philosophy, and reflection on becoming a better version of yourself on and off the mat.
Since my first yoga class while studying Dance at The Ohio State University, I’ve been fortunate enough to complete over 500 hours of therapeutic yoga teacher trainings and continue to study for my 800-hour yoga therapy certification with the International Association of Yoga Therapists.
Following my exposure to yoga, I completed my doctorate in physical therapy from Northwestern University. As a licensed physical therapist, I apply yoga therapeutically in my practice every day. The goal of yoga therapy is not to create a beautiful aesthetic or simply follow along in a class. Yoga Therapy is a specialized form of yoga that applies yoga-based movement, breath practices, and meditations to address specific medical needs. This empowering therapeutic approach can transform a person’s physical, emotional, and spiritual health. I offer individual and small group yoga therapy sessions to help you discover pain-free movement patterns and promote a positive relationship with your body.

Yoga poses and breath practices are usually uniformly taught, as though we all have the same bodies and needs. Since 2009, I have deeply studied how to adapt Yoga so that it is available to persons of all sizes, shapes and conditions. I teach a modern yoga practice informed by exercise science and tailored to each student’s anatomy.
In class you will use props to gain entry into otherwise inaccessible poses and feeling states. We’ll move slowly enough to explore which cues are relevant to your anatomy. You will learn good alignment to break bad movement habits, and you’ll learn how to listen to your body to avoid injury.
Classes are small so you can ask questions. I will emphasize stability and balance within a healthy range of motion. With good alignment, the body and mind find enough support to open up, relax and let go.
