Feedback from Private Clients
“I can positively say Divya is the real deal”
– Sam, Entrepreneur, London
“Being completely new to Yoga I was afraid of finding a class that would be more about the ‘Fad’ that is yoga rather than the real essence of what Yoga is.
After a few months of attending Divya’s sessions I can positively say she is the real deal.”
-Sam, Entrepreneur and Property Developer, London
“We have been doing weekly yoga lessons with Divya for over two years. We had never done yoga before, and started off hoping it would be a gentle way of improving our physical fitness.
Divya has been a wonderful yoga teacher. Our yoga lesson with her is now a highlight of our week.”
-Shanti and Satya, Consultant Doctors, north London
“My husband was sceptical to say the least but he was willing to give it a go, however, a year on, he is stronger, more flexible, more relaxed, more focused and free of any cynicism he may have once had.
Divya’s ability to keep our concentration throughout the lesson is amazing.”
-Nicola and Alex, Holistic practitioner and Entreprenuer, London
“After a session with Divya, the tightness in my chest and ear and head pain, which I had had for a long time, cleared. Amazing.”

“Thank you so so much for your amazing lessons.”
-Dr Patrizia Nestby, Consultant, Buckhinghamshire
“I began yoga lessons with Divya after having experienced neck and lower back disc problems.
As a result, my interest in it was purely from a medical standpoint, but after the first session, it became apparent that the rewards to my health were to be greater than I’d anticipated.
I am so grateful for these sessions.”
-Rina Shah, London and Toronto
“The difference Divya made to my yoga routine was amazing.
She had the right balance of encouragement, patience and persistence to be able to get the best out of me.”
-Geeta, MD, and mother of two, Harrow
“I started practising yoga with Divya after the birth of my second daughter. Each session was personalised and tailored to my needs and strength on that particular day.
Divya is a natural teacher who creates a relaxed and enjoyable environment in which to learn.”
-Julie, mother of two, Queens Park London
“I have attended a number of yoga classes with Divya over the last year and a half, and had a couple of private lessons too.
She is one of those rare yoga teachers where it is not about her or her neuroses, but all about the love of yoga and the student experience.”
-Andrew, Management Consultant, north London

I can’t thank you enough for the mindfulness sessions. It’s quietly changed my life.
