Teachers

Nirmal was born in a yoga family in India and started practising yoga at the age of 11. His father was a yoga teacher who studied under the spiritual guidance of Swami Dhirendra Brahmachari. Growing up in India's nurturing environment, Nirmal encountered many spiritual gurus in meditation and yoga centres established by Osho, Paramhansa Yogananda and Sriram Acharya.

Nirmal earned a Diploma in Yoga and Naturopathy as well as a Masters  in Yogic Science. He naturally developed his passion for understanding the connection between body, mind and soul. He enjoys sharing the knowledge gained from ancient scriptures like Patanjali's Yoga Sutras and Tao Te Ching of Lao Tse. These timeless teachings guide people to sail through difficult times wisely and fully experience the joy of life. He has a keen interest in the balance between Yin and Yang, a concept consistent with the crux of Yoga.

Nirmal enthusiastically teaches meditation, yoga for alignment and therapy. He thoroughly enjoys teaching students from diverse cultures and backgrounds, and find engaging with and exploring the uniqueness of new cultures a deeply enriching experience. Yoga is a path to better understand ourselves by exploring the mental, emotional and physical aspects of human existence.  He strongly believes that each one of us is equipped with the power of creation and self-healing and has inspired several students through his innate qualities and unique approaches that encourage positive inner changes and correct old unhealthy lifestyle patterns.

Milan

Milan was born in Hong Kong in an Indian family. Practicing yoga can be described as a turning point in her life.

 Living in a hustle and bustle city, like many people in Hong Kong, Milan suffered from depression and anxiety for a period of time. She attempted to overcome her conditions through movement and expression like ballet and aerial arts. Fortunately, she encountered yoga which was leading her to sit still and understand herself with love. With considerable progress on her self-healing journey, she completed 200 hours Yoga Teaching Training and 300 hours Advanced Hatha Yoga Teacher Training with International Yoga Academy. She believes practicing Yoga can assist more people to overcome emotional hardships and understand more on themselves and so as to the others. One knows how to love oneself, then the one has to know how to love the whole, the Universe.

 She was also teaching English and Mathematics to kids and teenagers for years. She found yoga could be beneficial to teenagers to relieve tension from school works and social life, so that she started teaching yoga in 2018 and gradually included adults.

 Milan is feeling grateful towards Master Nirmal who was one of the great teachers gave her guidance and support throughout the journey. She is ready to share her treasure from yoga to you. Come and see her in our studio.
