On behalf of all the children at the Shanti Bhavan residential school for poor children outside of Bangalore, India, I would like to thank the awesome Arva Yoga instructors and their friends and families for raising funds through the Saree Run as a gift to Shanti Bhavan! You are our Champions!! Be well and stay in touch -- as this is Shanti Bhavan's 25th Anniversary Year! Suzanne
Vaibhavi is very knowledgeable yoga teacher. I love all the sessions offered by her. The movement from one asana to another is very fluid and logical. My favorite asana is Moon Salutations. I look forward every Tuesday and Thursday morning for yoga sessions.
Vai Haridas teaches from the heart and offers a style of Yoga Asana that is calm and intentional. Her facilitation style is knowledgeable and creates a space of inquiry for her students to dive deeper into their practice. Working with Vai to create the Rise, Recover, Live Yoga Series was a collaborative experience that gave The Phoenix community more insight as to what Yoga is through a contextual lens. In partnership with The Phoenix, a sober, active, community, Vai was able to expand her reach at Arva Yoga to folks in recovery. She is passionate about her craft and offers a safe space for folks to practice as they are without pressure to achieve a certain posture. Vai is a joy and her mission at Arva Yoga is opening the doors to more accessible Yoga. The Phoenix is very happy to partner with Vai and help shift the narrative as to what Yoga looks like in the Western World.

I am a volunteer for Arva Yoga and as so have only positive things to say about this wonderful organization. Arva Yoga has a class for everyone with multiple sessions available throughout the week with a variety of time choices. Arva Yoga is growing and always adding to their offerings as an organization. I have been treated with such love and respect by Vai. She is the most loving and knowledgeable person you will meet and I am so blessed to volunteer here. She is so selfless and looks after the needs of the clients and her volunteers. This organization is taking Yoga and offering to all who have a desire regardless of finances or location. I am so proud to be a part of this wholesome organization and helping to make Yoga accessible for all.
Arva yoga is a great yoga class. For me it works out best bcoz it's early in the morning and puts me at a great and positive frame of mind for the whole day. There is an intent for each class and love the various series that are practiced. VAIBHAVI is a great teacher she explains the importance of each asana and puts students at ease so each person can go at their desired pace as per their body types.
Great sessions with detailed instructions. I was never into Yoga but Vaibhavi made me love Yoga. She ensures every person is following the instructions not just in in-person sessions but she does does it very effectively virtually too. The app user experience is amazing too. Thanks Arva Yoga!
Vaibhabhi is excellent yoga guru. I love my weekly sessions. I always felt stronger with her guidance and weekly practice. As a teacher she is enthusiastic, calm and has wonderful voice. Her tailored sessions are great mix of strength, flow, deep breathing and relaxation. I always look forward for her Tuesday and Thursday sessions to regain my energy. Love yoga and best classes with Vaibhabhi.
Arva Yoga has a Yoga lesson or a Yoga class for everyone. They have exercise and meditation sessions on weekday mornings, evenings, weekends. With their Yoga sessions, I was able to instill the necessary discipline in my routine with much needed daily exercises
