Know Your Coach.
A corporate professional who found balance on the mat – and now helps others do the same.
From Burnout
to the Mat.
- THE BEGINNING
Before yoga became a practice, it was something I dismissed. Growing up, I had seen my mother practise regularly, but I never paid much attention to it. Like many people, I thought yoga and meditation were vague and impractical.
That changed in 2013, during a difficult phase in college. I was struggling emotionally, mentally, academically, and socially. Anxiety had taken over, and even simple everyday things began to feel heavy.
As a last attempt to steady myself, I started with five minutes of meditation each morning, simply watching my breath. A month later, I gave yoga a chance. With a copy of Light on Yoga by B.K.S. Iyengar and a mat in my hostel room, I began practising for just ten minutes a day. Nothing elaborate. Just a quiet, consistent practice that slowly helped me feel human again.
- THE DISCOVERY
What began as a way to cope gradually became something much deeper. Within weeks, I noticed meaningful changes. I was sleeping better, feeling calmer, and becoming more present in my own life. Over the years, my practice was not always perfect or consistent, but I kept returning to it because it always brought me back to steadiness and clarity.
In 2022, after returning to Mumbai and rejoining corporate life, I came back to yoga with much greater seriousness. This time, I began learning under a teacher, and my practice deepened in a more structured way.
- THE DECISION
As my practice deepened, so did a quiet but persistent thought: what if this path was meant to be shared? At the time, I was working at Morgan Stanley in a demanding corporate role. I had stability, but I knew I wanted a life with more meaning, more freedom, and more direct human impact.
Inspired by my teacher, and by the transformation I had experienced myself, I went to Rishikesh in 2024 to complete my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training. Soon after, I began teaching alongside my full-time job.
That phase made one thing very clear: teaching yoga felt deeply meaningful. Today, I teach with a strong focus on accessibility, sustainability, and intelligent progression – using props, modifications, and a beginner-friendly approach to help people build strength, confidence, and trust in their own bodies.
I know what long hours, tight deadlines, and a body shaped by desk life can feel like – because I lived it too
Built in the Boardroom
Before teaching yoga full-time, I spent over seven years in demanding corporate roles across economic research, finance, consulting, and quantitative work. That experience shaped the way I think and teach today: with structure, precision, and respect for process.
I understand what long hours, mental fatigue, sedentary routines, and constant pressure can do to the body and mind. That is why my teaching is not built around vague motivation or quick fixes. It is built around clear guidance, thoughtful progression, and practices that are meant to work in real life.

How every session
is shaped
My teaching is structured, adaptable, and built around the person in front of me. I focus on sustainable progress, clear guidance, and helping you build trust in your own body – without force, ego, or unnecessary complexity.
Feel Over Form
I care less about how a pose looks and more about how it feels in your body. The goal is not performance. The goal is awareness, control, and safety.
Props Are Partners
Props are not shortcuts. They are tools for access, precision, confidence, and progression – helping each body work more intelligently.
Build Slowly, Sustain Long
I do not rush students into advanced shapes. We build step by step, at a pace your body can recover from and return to.
Meet You Where You Are
Every body arrives with a different history, energy level, and set of limitations. The practice is adapted to you – not the other way around.
Teach the Person, Not the Pose
I am not here to force you into shapes. I am here to help you understand your body, move with more confidence, and progress in a way that lasts.
“Your body often knows more than you think. I simply help you learn to listen to it.”
Trained. Certified. Committed.
My teaching is shaped not only by experience on the mat, but also by formal training and continued study. I completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in January 2024 in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, and the experience gave greater depth, structure, and clarity to the way I practise and teach.
In addition to being certified by Yoga Alliance USA, I am also certified in Yin Yoga and hold YCB certifications as a Yoga Volunteer and Yoga Wellness Instructor. I continue to build on this foundation through further study and continuing education.
Alongside my yoga training, my academic background in Mechanical Engineering and Economics, and over seven years of work in finance, consulting, and quantitative roles, have shaped the way I teach: with precision, structure, and a strong respect for process.

A word from the teachers who have shaped my path
What sets Aman apart is his corporate background – he gets the time constraints, the stress, the sitting-all-day reality. He adjusts sessions around my energy levels that day – no rigid plans. It’s genuinely sustainable now.
Anjali M.
Financial Analyst, Delhi
I’ve been doing online sessions for 6 months. The time zone flexibility is a lifesaver. Aman guides me through prop alternatives when I’m traveling. I sleep better, posture improved, and shoulder tension is mostly gone.
Vikram N.
Consultant, Remote
We brought Aman for a corporate wellness program. The team loved it. He tailored sessions for our lunch break slot and made it beginner-friendly for those who’d never tried yoga. Multiple team members now continue with him 1:1.
