From a young age, Nantha was drawn towards a spiritual way of living and mind and body connection. She loved yoga right from the start, exploring many different styles. It wasn’t until a couple of years later that Nantha started practicing Ashtanga/Vinyasa yoga and the fluidity, beauty and meditative qualities captured her heart.
Nantha had no intentions of teaching yoga. She wanted to immerse herself in a training to deepen her own personal practice. Little did she know the universe had other plans. Nantha has studied with many renowned teachers and is always learning and expanding her experience and knowledge of this lifelong practice by continuing to learn from her most favorite and influential teachers of the past and present.
She decided to open Ayur Yoga Villa Studio when she started to practice her therapeutic Health care wellness Clinic in Markham. As the Ayur Yoga Villa studio has evolved so has her teachings and practice. Nantha not only teaches group classes incorporating intelligent and invigorating sequencing, good music and calming energy but specializes in working one on one. She works with professional athletes, celebrities and the local community using yoga as a tool to help address, assess and work through physical injuries and imbalances and foster a greater sense of awareness, healing and balance in the body and mind. She consistently continues her Ph. D in yoga education through Annamalai University and her Ayurvedic Doctorate Degree ( BHMS) Ayurvedic College in India and is proud to be a part of the Yoga Medicine® community where the standards of education are raising the bar in the health and wellness. Nantha strives to bring yoga into everyday life by doing, evolving, and truly living it, allowing peace and joy to flourish within and spread to others!
