FITNESS


Yogic Warrior

Infusing forms of dance, Yogasanas, martial arts, and rhythmic beats, along with contemporary fitness lifestyle, I created the Yogic Warrior, an intensive workout focused on body-mind conditioning with rigorous moves and stances. I introduced it in 2016 training several members of premier and established fitness centres in Bengaluru – Fit District and Tribe Fitness (both taken over by Cult Fit).

Through the workout, I also introduced the basics of our traditional arts in a demonstrative manner, in order to draw awareness of our traditional arts and motivate members to pursue through traditional practices.

Prowl – Cult Fit

I co-created the introductory master workout for Prowl, a HIIT fitness regime by Cult-Fit, incorporating dance and martial arts, which was introduced in 2018 and is now being practised across India. However, I opted-out as a master trainer for the program.

Traditional disciplines hold generations of research and practices with in-depth holistic knowledge of body fitness, mental wellness, and our inner consciousness. Understanding the science of movement, helps to perfect the art, and inherit the cultural spirit. My focus of research and study is drawn towards the knowledge and the hidden secrets our traditions hold over our modern practices.
