Where it began
From India to Winchester.
In 1999, Jyoti travelled alone through India to explore her family roots: her father is Indian and her mother English. A six-month journey introduced her to a yoga school in the far south — and a new direction in life.
She qualified as a teacher, spent another two years developing her practice in an ashram, and taught on a nearby beach for three years. Returning to the UK, she began teaching in Winchester, Hampshire.
When the pandemic moved classes online in 2020, Jyoti discovered how much she enjoyed teaching this way. She has continued online ever since, keeping personal connection at the heart of her classes.
Her teaching philosophy
Movement, breath and room to be yourself.
Jyoti’s approach brings together movement, breathing and mindfulness, with time to warm up and options to suit different bodies. The emphasis is on a practice you can participate in comfortably.
Start where you are
You do not need to feel flexible or experienced to begin. Chair-based practice can be an option when getting down to the floor does not suit you; ask Jyoti which class is right for you.
Enjoy the connection
Her classes combine gentle teaching with humour and a friendly welcome. A chat before practice, music and even the occasional visiting pet help make the group feel like a community.
Why online?
Your home. A real teacher.
No journey, parking or unfamiliar hall. Join from your laptop, tablet or phone, in a space that feels comfortable to you.
Jyoti uses a webcam and a large monitor to see students and offer verbal guidance during live sessions. She values the confidence that practising at home can give people who feel self-conscious about joining a class.
Sessions include movement, attention to breathing and time for relaxation. Check the current timetable and booking options on Over 50s Yoga, or contact Jyoti if you are unsure where to start.
