Our Teachers
Yoga Darshan's team of yogis, teachers and kirtanists bring many years of experience and a rich authenticity to your retreat or workshop.
Gangadhara
Gangadhara started yoga from an early age, inspired by her parents. At 24, she trained in India under a traditional yoga master and was initiated into the Sannyasa tradition. Ganga's life and teaching style is a reflection of her aspiration and dedication, and her classes are noted for the ease in which she teaches pratyahara and dharana (meditation) practices. She loves nothing more than bringing incredible teachers together to work on retreats and yatras, creating an atmosphere in which the subtle science of yoga can be revealed. 
Sangita
Sangita is an inspired and gifted yoga and music teacher, whose speciality is bringing participants together through the practices of chanting and kirtan. Sangita is loved by all who cross her path and is a natural meditation teacher, transmitting the pure teachings of yoga with ease and grace. 
Lakshmi
Lakshmi is an artistic and creative teacher, who is noted for her flair in programs that specifically include the use of ritual, such as havan and yantra sessions, where she offers deeper aspects of sadhana. She also has a great zeal and passion for karma yoga; her heartfelt kirtan is appreciated by all, and she is a constant inspiration and support for ‘all things yogic’. Lakshmi is also a great cook, dishing up delicious vegetarian food during our programs. |
Swami Satyadharma Swami Satyadharma is a master meditation teacher and an international authority on yoga, having authored many books and guided thousands into higher meditation practices. Yoga Darshan has been truly fortunate to have received her guidance and mentoring and guest appearance, as she shared her support and inspiration over the years. Gangadhara has worked extensively with Swami Satyadharma and is committed to continuing and carrying forward the eternal inspiration and light of yoga that Swami Satyadharma cultivated and lived with such dedication, clarity and deep understanding. |
"I attended a yoga weekend recently with Yoga Darshan and found the teachers to be extremely knowledgeable and very clear with their teaching. They were kind and patient and taught with attention to detail. I gained some new and profound practices to take home." (Robert Snowball)
