Meet our team
The people who teach our classes. Each came to yoga a different way, and each teaches it a little differently.
Darsak
Co-Founder & Yoga Teacher
Hi, I’m Darsak! I am the co-founder and a teacher at Yoga Dynamix, where I’ve been guiding yoga classes for children and teens at the Harrow Arts Centre in Hatch End since 2008.
Yoga Dynamix started in March 2008, on a trip to the International Yoga Festival in Rishikesh. My friend Fal and I spent time with the children at the Parmarth Niketan Ashram, and what stayed with us was how settled they were. We came home wanting to give children here some of that.
I trained with Yoga Kids International and qualified as a Certified YogaKids Teacher (CYKT) in 2009. A lot of teachers have passed through Yoga Dynamix since, each bringing their own style to our children, teens and adults. We have also trained up senior student assistants over the years, and a couple of them now run their own classes here. That one I am properly proud of.
Our classes are playful, and nobody competes or gets judged. We work on stillness, gratitude and paying attention to the natural world. Through the poses and guided meditation, children get the space to work out who they are, and to be kind to themselves while they do it.
Rohan
Children's & Teens Yoga Teacher
Hi, I’m Rohan. I started yoga at the age of four, right here at Yoga Dynamix. It taught me how the body moves, and, just as much, how breath work and meditation hold things together in your head.
Yoga has done a lot for my health and wellbeing, and it carried me through some hard patches at school and outside it. Now at 17, I know first-hand what it does for a young person, so I wanted to give something back to the community that raised me.
As a teacher I want to push children a bit, give them techniques they can actually use, and leave them room to grow. I want the next lot to get out of it what I did.
Anoop
Teens & Adults Yoga Teacher
Hi, I’m Anoop. I have been learning yoga since the age of 12, without any intention of making it a profession and guiding others on their journey of self-care.
For the past 15 years, I have led classes and guided various groups and individuals, with students ranging from 7 to 97 years old. Yoga Dynamix was a wonderful addition to this venture.
Yoga Dynamix has provided me with a platform where I could reach even further and share my love and passion.
I get back more than I give. The feedback, the blessings, watching someone’s physical and mental health change. Hard to put into words.
