Tanamayi is a graphic designer, editor and a certified Classical Hatha Yoga instructor with more than 1,750 hours of training from the Isha School of Hatha Yoga in India. She has over 26 years of experience in yoga and meditation. She was awarded first prize for female professional yoga teachers by the High Commissioner of India, Uganda, and the Ambassador of India, Burundi, at the 2020 International Day of Yoga.

​

Her passion for dance has lead her to perform Bollywood, folk and classical dance forms. She has been sharing her joy of dancing through dance workshops to children and adults in India, Africa and USA. She is an online dance instructor at CALA, Middle Tennessee State University. She witnesses how dance helps people overcome depression, coordination, mobility issues, flexibility and stamina. She happens to rub off her joy and enthusiasm to those who cross her path.

​

In the yogic lifestyle, consuming pranic (positive energy) diet is important to Tanamayi and Yogesh. Being a cake lover, she found her skills for baking when she met her dear friend, Martha. Bam! Lots of pranic sweets! Her husband, Yogesh being an American, she experiments on different cuisines and evolves her own recipes using alternatives to food items which have negative impact on the system.

"When I dance, cook or simply be, I experience a heightened pleasant state of ease which I long to snap back into and wish for everyone to experience. The foundation indeed sprouted from Classical Yoga. Grateful to my parents to introduce me at the age of 11 to yoga and the source,  Sadhguru and grow in His Isha ashram for 13 years!"
