WHAT THE GRADS AND TEACHERS HAVE TO SAY:
MEET YOUR TEACHERS
Neha Duseja
(600 ERYT)

Neha is a ERYT 600 Certified, international Vinyasa yoga teacher, who runs yoga trainings, CPDs, workshops and retreats around the world.
Nehaβs journey began close to 10 years ago, as a means of beginning again. Leaving a successful advertising career behind, looking to live a more authentic, more purposeful life, she found her answer in a pool of sweat, on a yoga mat one summer in Dubai.
Her love affair with yoga began in the hot room, after which she found her wings in a vinyasa class and discovered a channel for her creativity in arm balances, inversions and beautiful transitions within the flows. Yoga was changing her and she didnβt even know! Accepting versus refusing. Softening, versus hardening. Neha realized that yoga is a means for mental metamorphosis. Transforming limitations into opportunities, and fear into empowerment, simply existing to really living, every breath, every moment, that is the gift of the practice!
For the past 4 years, with a need to dive deeper into technique and expand on her love for the practice, Neha has been a regular student in the mysore room. Studying with Nea Ferrier, in Dubai, connecting with the Ashtanga lineage, that has helped her deepen her connection to yoga, to her self, her body and her reasons for teaching.
Nehaβs vinyasa classes are creative, challenging, and made sure to be accessible for all. The focus is always on expanding student knowledge of themselves through postures, breathwork and mindful movement.
