INSTRUCTOR SPOTLIGHT!!

I have to thank my dear brother for the opportunity to meet Anjali Sunita (). Back in 2014/15ish he and were leading an acro yoga workshop at , amazing yoga spaces owned my good friend Anjali. Of course we got partnered up on the first day, and over the course of that weekend got to know each other nerding out over the yoga sutras. Her expertise in Sanskrit and Ayurveda are highlights of this training.

While at a train in India, Anjali experienced a profound healing under the guidance of an Ayurvedic doctor. Through regular daily practices Anjali’s life began to shift and her passion for Ayurveda was awakened. Over the last 20+ years, she has trained in yoga through the Sivananda Ashrams in India and Canada, as well as multiple training programs in the United States. Anjali received her Ayurvedic certification through the Ayurvedic Institute and continued her studies under her teacher Dr. Vasant Lad in New Mexico and Pune, India. She also completed a panchakarma specialist program with Dr. Kalvaidya of Charak Ayurveda in Jaipur, India. Additionally, she has vocal training in North Indian classical singing, with one of the foremost female sitar musicians in the world, Guruji Hasu Patel.

Anjali has a gift for integrating the knowledge from her beloved teachers and sharing it in a loving way that is accessible, easily to understand, and applicable to each person she encounters. As a biracial woman of Indian descent, she carries particular interest in restoring what is most sacred - the practices and medicines of her family, so many of which have been white-washed and colonized to desolation. She believes that through reconnecting with these traditions, we can collectively heal and transform with the earth’s natural medicine.
