Sunita Singh
Yoga & Meditation Teacher
Sunita has been instructing yoga to numerous individuals globally and possesses extensive expertise in this domain. Her experience has endowed her with the exceptional ability to evaluate and comprehend
her students' strengths, capabilities, and limitations.
Her teaching methodology is grounded in a scientific approach to Yoga, utilizing essential tools such as movement, deep breathing, and maintaining poses. Her yoga approach is therapeutic, recognizing that each body accumulates emotions, thoughts, and vibrations due to
various life influences, some of which are detrimental to one's well-being.
"I believe Yoga is the key, and we can harness its magic for self-development and self-transformation.
With yoga and dynamic movement, we keep the physical body fit and robust. Through meditation, we cultivate the mental strength necessary for desired life changes and emotional balance. Spiritual growth fosters harmony and peace within.
These three aspects are crucial to living a truly wonderful life on Earth. A positive attitude is essential to overcome internal limitations and is vital for integrating well-being of body, mind, and soul."
Sunita Singh
She empowers her students to uncover their hidden strengths and motivates them to use these unique abilities to enhance their lives and those of others. She views Yoga as a necessary and straightforward method to maintain physical and mental health, an effective way to release negative energies from the past and present, and a key force in helping you be yourself.
Yoga is a journey that extends beyond asanas; it is a growth process that integrates your being and elevates you to higher internal planes.
Background Information:
Sunita began learning yoga in 1991 at Vishwayatan Yoga Ashram in Delhi, under the tutelage of the controversial Swami Dhirendra Brahmachaari, who was also Indira Gandhi's personal teacher, India's only female Prime Minister.
The style, known as Suksham Yoga or Yoga of the Subtle or Inner Body, is a tantric form of Hatha Yoga emphasizing kriyas and strong breathing techniques, and is considered highly effective for maintaining good health.
Despite learning other popular styles, she still regards Suksham Yoga as one of the superior and simpler yoga forms that efficiently preserve youthful vitality and mental strength.
In 2009, she discovered and fell in love with Kundalini Yoga, as taught by Yogi Bhajan. As a Sikh, the mantras and prayers resonated with her, reconnecting her to her roots. She noticed similarities between the yoga she learned at Swami Dhirendra Brahmachari's ashram and Kundalini Yoga, realizing that Swami Dhirendra Brahmachari and Yogi Bhajan were friends who shared insights on the hidden and secret aspects of yoga before Yogi Bhajan introduced the powerful and spiritual Kundalini Yoga to the United States, regarded as a pure form of White Tantra.
Her yoga emphasizes therapy with a focus on both physical and mental health. She believes individuals are defined by their thoughts, feelings, and beliefs, and the energy they emit returns to them. The energy we project attracts what we consciously or unconsciously think, feel, and express. Harness the magic of Yoga to consciously control your thoughts and
Achieve harmony with yourself!
She has previously taught in Scandinavia, Norway, and Sweden, and currently teaches in Dharamshala during the summers and Goa during the winters. She resides in South Goa, leading a simple life in a charming village in Colomb, nestled between the Patnem and Palolem seas.
Yoga
Yoga is the union between the Self and the Divine. It is a practice that works on the body, mind, and spirit. In essence, we are energy who come into the Earth and take a physical manifestation of a body. We feel, emote, and relate. We have dreams, plans, and aspirations. Our body and mind help us work towards them and hopefully achieve them.
​
Yet, if it was just a question of eating, sleeping, earning a living, and procreating, our wealth and comfort would fulfill the basic human need for happiness and finding meaning in life. Surprisingly, it is not so.
​
To live means a lot more than that, and every day, we discover again and again that there is something more to life. And ‘that more’ makes us feel alive, not just merely living.
​
Every one of us has its own journey. In this journey, we should strive to become more humane rather than just remain mere humans. The practice of yoga helps us find the source from which our inner journey begins. Because from the inner, the outer is created. It also helps us become better human beings and to cultivate qualities like compassion, empathy, and care. When all these begin to awaken inside us, life is not just about us, but also about the world around us.

My practice is an opportunity to reflect and gain insights into how I want to live my life and who I choose to be. It makes me more awake, conscious, balanced, and connected to myself and those around me.”
