TEACHERS
MANOJ AND SANDHYA
Manoj has been introduced to Yoga at a very young age by his
grandfather, shri sridhara Shankara Kaimal. Later he took
to the teachings of Swami Sivananda through the Sivananda
Ashram, and eventually took the teacher’s training program
under the school. Following that he continued to explore the
teachings of various great masters such as B.K.S Iyengar,
Pattabhi Jois etc to understand about different aspects of
this great science of Yoga. In Malaysia he started teaching
at the renowned Temple of Fine Arts, and later along with
his wife, Sandhya, was inspired to open their own studio in
SS2, Petaling Jaya.
Sandhya
has been an ardent practitioner of yoga for the past 6 years,
and helped Manoj in the conceptualization of Manasa Yoga,
a style of yoga which incorporates scientific body alignment
methods, at the same time firmly grounded in the timeless
philosophy of yoga as expounded in the various Indian scriptures.
