Founding Story

My name is Vaibhavi and I am the Founder and President of Arva Yoga.

 

As a technology professional in the USA, I enjoy my job very much- stimulates my mind and also helps pay our bills:). I have two kids and a very supportive husband! Life has been kind and we have been blessed with all comforts known to mankind. 

I am a yoga enthusiast and my love for yoga started when I was a child growing up in India. I was a "Rope Mallakhamb" Player- meaning I not only did yoga at competitions, but did those poses on suspended rope! Today, as a registered Yoga Alliance 200 hour certified multi-style yoga teacher, I have been able to nurture that love for yoga in form of my Ariel Yoga practice and teaching.

 

In addition to Yoga, I also am a 100 Hour Meditation Alliance Certified Guided Meditation Teacher.

As a lifelong learner of the world's oldest scriptures- The Vedas and Upanishads, my Foundation Vedanta Course Certification helps me round my yoga classes with philosophy insights.

With a firm belief that teaching others is the best way to reinforce your own learning, establishing this non-profit is my small attempt in this world. It feels great to give back to the society by making this rich knowledge available to all for its therapeutic benefits!

Founded in the memory of my grand-mother who passed away in 2020, Arva Yoga offers free and accessible yoga classes for people from all walks of life. We are expanding and growing our platform with new teachers and new initiatives every month. 

“OM: the symbol of the Three in One, the three worlds in the Soul; the three times, past, present, future, in Eternity; the three Divine Powers, Creation, Preservation, Transformation, in the one Being; the three essences, immortality, omniscience, joy, in the one Spirit. This is the Word, the Symbol, of the Master and Lord, the perfected Spiritual Man.”
