Tell us a little bit about yourself.

I’m the daughter of immigrants from India, the youngest of three sisters, and the proudest Masi (maternal aunt) to the two most intelligent and awe-inspiring little people.

I offer yoga through a holistic, social-justice lens with the aim to educate and empower individuals and communities. In addition to running an online yoga space, I am co-host of the Yoga Is Dead podcast and the creator of the abcdyogi network, where South Asian teachers reclaim the yoga and mindfulness space.
