Namaste, I am Dhara
Walk the path of self-discovery.
A Practice Rooted in Tradition
Yoga has always been quietly present in my life in many forms while growing up in India. With over 1100 hours of training in Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa, and more than six years of teaching experience, my practice is rooted in tradition yet responsive to the needs of modern life, a path that continues to evolve alongside me.
The Practice Within
For me, yoga is a sacred space, a mirror that reveals where we resist and where we can soften. On the mat, I explore purpose, compassion, and humility, and I invite my students to do the same. My classes place deep emphasis on alignment and breath awareness; they may feel challenging at times, but are always intentional, creating space for growth in both body and mind.
Carrying Tradition Forward
I hold space for students to move beyond self-imposed limitations, to discover resilience, and to build confidence in their own practice. Above all, I hope to share a practice that grounds, steadies, and carries the essence of traditional Indian yoga into the heart of London.
How Do In-Person Classes Work?
In-person classes offer a calm, supportive space to practise with direct guidance, mindful alignment, and breath awareness. Each session is rooted in traditional Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa principles, helping you build strength, confidence, and steadiness in both body and mind.
How do in-person classes work?
In-person sessions are arranged directly with you and take place at a suitable location you provide, such as your home, workplace, or another private space. Before the session, we’ll discuss what you’re looking for, your experience level, and anything you’d like to focus on, so the practice can be shaped around your needs.
Each session includes guided movement, breath awareness, alignment support, and time to settle, with the practice adapted to your pace and how you’re feeling on the day.
What should I bring to class?
Please bring your own yoga mat and any personal equipment you like to practise with, such as blocks, a strap, blanket, or eye pillow. You may also wish to bring a towel, water bottle, or mat spray if you use one.
If the class is taking place at your workplace or another shared space, please make sure there is enough room to move comfortably and that the area is clean, quiet, and suitable for practice.
Are classes suitable for beginners?
Classes are held at a suitable location provided by you, such as your home, workplace, or private venue. Location details will be discussed before confirming the session to make sure the space is appropriate for practice.
Please allow for the full appointment window, as in-person sessions include travel, setup, the guided practice itself, and time before and after the class to prepare and close the session properly.

How Do Virtual Classes Work?
A virtual yoga session enables participants to engage in live yoga classes from their own space through online platforms such as Zoom or Google Meet.
How do virtual classes work?
Participants register for a class, receive a session link, and at the scheduled time, join the virtual session from their own space. An instructor guides the class in real-time, leading participants through exercises, poses, or activities via video. Participants can interact with the instructor and, in some cases, fellow attendees.
What equipment will I need?
Ideally…
To participate in virtual yoga classes, you’ll generally need a yoga mat, a device with a camera and internet (computer, tablet, or smartphone), a stable internet connection, and optionally, yoga props like blocks and straps. Wear comfortable clothing, set up in a well-lit area, and have a water bottle nearby. Headphones or external speakers can improve audio. Clear a safe space and check with the instructor for any specific requirements.
Will classes be recorded and accessible later?
Yes, our classes are recorded and shared with participants after the live session (for upto 48 hours). This allows participants who couldn’t attend the live class to still benefit from the instruction. It also gives attendees a chance to revisit the session for additional practice or reference. However, in the future this may vary depending on the teacher and how the company expands.
