Ishitva Yoga

Gautami Darvesh is a qualified yoga trainer and a therapist apart from being a lawyer and a qualified company secretary. She has been practising yoga for over 15 years. She developed her passion for yoga to teach in the year 2021 and since then she has been trained in areas such as yoga for various health disorders also known as therapeutic yoga, kids yoga level I, supportive care for cancer patients and yoga for pre-natal and post-natal.

She started her teaching journey in August 2023. She believes that awakening of soul can make one liberated and every posture of yoga is helpful in awakening one’s soul. She also believes that the aim of life is to be in communion with the supreme universal spirit and achievement of this aim is possible only through yoga. Every kriya of yoga leads us on to the path of awakening. Awakening of self is YOGA.

She also believes that yoga helps to get rid of our negative tendencies such as violence, anger, jealousy, hatred etc. and nurture the virtues such as ahimsa, harmony, love, compassion and cooperation. Yoga does not supress our negative tendencies but it transforms into positive tendencies.

Her classes bring attention to the poses and movements / actions as a way to access a more refined body and mind awareness. Her classes are insightful, inspiring, challenging, energetic, functional and progressive as she weaves in movement, breath-work and chanting.

She teaches various asana postures, breathing techniques, kriyas, bandhas, meditation and yoga nidra relaxation techniques in the practice to promote mental and physical well-being.

She is an avid student and is continually evolving her practice through further training and study.
