Ravi Dixit knows the benefits of yoga like no other, growing up in India where yoga is a part of daily life. Since yoga has become mainstream in the West, more and more people are experiencing the benefits of this powerful practice. However, some of the principles of the original teachings are often getting lost in modern yoga.

Ravi is passionate to bring back the essence of yoga, making the values of traditional yoga understandable and approachable for everyone. In his early twenties he lived at several Ashram in Rishikesh, where he studied Hatha and Ashtanga Yoga. The years following, Ravi worked as the resident teacher at one of the top retreats in Goa, where he led classes for thousands of students from all over the world. in 2017 he moved to London and quickly found his way as a traditional yoga teacher in the UK.

One evening in November 2020, he was critically injured in a road accident and spent over a month in Intensive Care on a ventilator. By grace and miracles, he survived, and Ravi is extremely grateful he was given a second life. He feels that the power of yoga played an essential part in his survival and recovery.

“Yoga is not about the perfect pose, it’s about reconnecting with yourself and finding harmony between you and you. This will bring peace and health to your body and mind.”
