An evidence-informed approach

Yoga may support general physical and emotional wellbeing and can be used alongside — not in place of — appropriate professional healthcare. Experiences and outcomes vary between individuals.

Yoga can complement established approaches to wellbeing by engaging movement, breathing, attention and bodily awareness. Scientific research continues to explore the mechanisms through which regular practice may support stress regulation, mood and resilience.

Bhavin's programmes draw on traditional yogic principles interpreted through contemporary neuroscience and psychology, creating a distinctive and thoughtful approach to wellbeing.

François Perrodo

Chairman, Perenco

My goals have been achieved — elimination of back pain, improved flexibility and a general improvement in my health and wellbeing. Despite regular sessions spanning over eleven years, I come out of every session feeling a new sense of challenge, energy and wellbeing. Bhavin's yoga has become an integral part of my life.

Luitpold von Finck

Director, Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts

You have a consistency about you — a calm yet enthusiastic energy, a sensitivity to identify what is needed and when. You have no ego, which is exceptional in the movement world. The class is never about you; it is always about the participant. I look forward to my two yoga sessions weekly and how they improve me mentally, emotionally and physically.

Bhavin is phenomenal. 'Artistic Yoga' is so unique — it allows the student to achieve stretches and positions with ease. You just feel fantastic by the end of the session. Bhavin tailors every session to the individual and is extremely intuitive.
