Anjali found yoga while studying theater breathing techniques and learned an embodied approach to soften her traumatic memory and to ease physical discomforts rooted in anxiety. Drawn to the wisdom grounded in India, where her mother was born, she pursued her first formal training there. Through yoga and yoga’s sister science, Ayurveda, Anjali found a life path that has made her comfortable in her own skin and a way to provide a compassionate service in the world. She has numerous certificates from the Sivananda Yoga Dhanwantari Ashram in Kerala, India, prenatal yoga, yoga for kids, AcroYoga International, Yoga for Arthritis, and studied continuously for 15 years as she ran a yoga center in her hometown Baltimore, Maryland. She also ran a non-profit program which trained and paid BIPOC to teach yoga for free in Baltimore’s disinvested neighborhoods. She has taught in a variety of environments with dual focus on tradition and accessibility.

This has become my favorite class of the week. I was hesitant at first because I love asana practice and I didn’t think much of pranayama before taking this class. It only took one class with Anjali and I was hooked. She is an amazing teacher.
