I started my yoga journey over 20 years ago, in 1994, as I was a troublesome teenager (who hasn't been there right?). Teaching yoga was never the plan, but since it found me, I began to teach in 2012, after I parted ways with the corporate world. I spent the first decade teaching a personalized blend of Ashtanga (8 limbs) & Hatha Yoga tailored to the expat community (42 nationalities), residing in New Delhi, India . As life would have it, I found love, and that meant leaving India. This move shifted my teaching online, and allowed me an opportunity to interact and reach even more people from all over the world. It also enabled me to build and expand my teaching style, offering a meditative form of organic yoga, along with an array of guided meditations steeped with breathing, silence and wisdom(s). I completed "The Power of Awareness" under Jack Kornfield & Tara Brach in 2022, and have been awarded a scholarship to study The Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program (Feb 2023), under their tutelage. Always a sadhak (student) then a teacher. Corporate Background : Priyanka has an extensive training in phonemics & phonetics due to her corporate training background at a fortune 500 company, Wipro. She has assisted many fellow Indians learn to neutralize or soften their harsh consonants and imbibe diphthongs in their speech. Alternatively, she would like to honour Sunskrit and appeal to the yogi world to be mindful of their pronunciations of words such as sunskrit, namaste and asun names.

So welcome to my channel, and let me guide you on a journey to connect with your body, breath and spirit. visit my website if this inspires you to book a private skype yoga session : https://yogawithpriyanka.ca Teaching Style: Priyanka is a dynamic yoga teacher who insists on her clients being in the moment - her surya namaskars (sun salutations) are a spontaneous blend of traditional poses with variations, in such a way that require the practitioner to remain in the present and avoid getting caught in an ego trap or getting bored of their yoga. She enriches the practice by bringing focus & awareness to ones' body, breath, thoughts and energy centres (chakras). Priyanka's International high school education allowed her an insight on how to interact with and teach yoga to the International clientele, residing in New Delhi, India. Her Bachelors degree in English (B.A English Hons), along with her corporate training background in training customer service, language and western culture, enabled her to merge excellent communication skills with customercentric behaviours allowing her to adapt and create the sublime yoga sessions. ​ Furthermore, Priyanka's knowledge of Vipassana and Yoga, two very different approaches overlapped, to strengthen her yoga practice – which led to her to study Ashtanga Yoga at the Pattabhi Jois Institute, Mysore (KPJAYI), under Sri Saraswathi's tutelage. She continued to explore other forms such as Iyengar, Kundalini, Jivamukti, Anusara, Partner, Yin, Restorative, and Acro Yoga. The different styles served to enrich her teaching abilities since she taught a traditional form of personalized yoga; catering to expats, diplomats and ambassadors' wives. This required her to be well versed in all the forms of yoga, that are being offered in the 21st century, and allows her to blend the traditional with the new wave that has taken the world by storm... Priyanka continues to study buddhist philosophies and meditates with different sanghas' online...

When we take a few moments to consciously appreciate all the good things that we have in our life (and oddly enough even the suffering we face) life becomes sweeter. By practising gratitude meditations regularly, we take the time out to open our hearts, acknowledge what we might overlook or take for granted and are actively thankful for living through another day. The practice of gratitude allows us to face our weaknesses, and the darker moments in our life with a greater ability to accept, learn and grow from them. This can have a ripple effect of allowing us to live a more fulfilling existence, by being happier, having richer social interactions, better health and allows us to calmly respond to stressful situations rather than react.
