From Our Mat…
; Your presence has made this space special. While some may view this as a small business / boutique studio, our primary goal has been to bring smiles to people’s faces, and we are truly grateful for the opportunity.As we celebrate this milestone, we do so with utmost gratitude for each and every one of you. Thank you for trusting us with your practice and for being part of this journey and community. We are honored to continue growing together.
Here’s to eight amazing years—and to many more breaths, movements, friendships, and moments of connection ahead.
With gratitude,
Varsha & Satya
Opening day
First day first class practitioners!
Pose Spotlight: TrikonAsana (Triangle)
A strong dynamic pose literally forming triangles with long lines of the legs, arms, torso, and spine. This pose promotes strength in the legs, core and promotes balance.
It is a full body engagement that can be performed with various props to keep the body aligned, while still maintainign extension, stability, and strength. It is a foundational pose that is a must for everyone.
If you only had time to practice for a short time, this is one of the poses that should be included (there are a few more 🙂 which we will talk about as we come upon them!)
So how many triangles do you see in your pose? Remember there are no curved lines in a triangle 😀
Would you commit to being in trikonasana each day?

Teacher Spotlight
Manisha has been part of the YogaSukham community since its opening in 2018. She is a teacher by profession, choice, and passion. Extending her teaching skill to Yoga practice seemed like a natural progression. In her own words:
“Over the years, my experience within the YogaSukham studio has been shaped by a deep commitment to the safe, comprehensive, and nurturing practices given by Satya and Varsha.
Coming to yoga practice regularly gives me an opportunity to stay focused, productive, and happy. These positive results of yoga practice keep bringing me back to the studio for the past eight years!
I finished my Advanced Studies Program in 2021, which gave me a deeper awareness of Yoga-abhyasa (yoga studies). Over the years, I have learnt the importance of alignment, breath awareness, and mindfulness. I believe Yoga-abhayasa is a lifelong journey of learning.
I started sharing and teaching my yoga practices at YS in 2022 and have enjoyed every minute of it. Every class I teach is my own learning experience, too! I am so grateful to YogaSukham and all the practitioners for giving me the opportunity to serve the community and help build mindfulness. I believe every class at YogaSukham is a collective journey where energy is shared, community is built, and individuals are empowered to honor their bodies exactly as they are.”

Eight years in, YogaSukham is still where I return to reconnect — not just with the practice, but with a calmer, steadier version of myself.

YogaSukham gives me satisfaction of discipline. I feel accomplished each time I come to my mat. A regular practice has become a very precious part of me and I am very thankful for that.

For me, yoga is more than just a practice – it’s a way to nurture my body, calm my mind, and revitalize my entire being.
it’s a way to cultivate overall well-being, soothing my mind, energizing my body, and uplifting my entire being.

YogaSukham Picnic in May!
Oh! What a blast it was!
Our YogaSukham picnic last month was an event we had been eagerly looking forward to.
You all made it happen! It was fun & engaging with so many families we got to meet!
We all shared delicious foods from all over and played games! If you missed it this time, stay tuned for the next one!
Here are some pictures 🙂
As we mature, evolve, adapt, and tune ourselves to the needs of our community, we welcome your suggestions, thoughts, and ideas. If you would like to share them with us, please email info@YogaSukham.com – we truly appreciate it.

Now I wait for YogaSukham’s news letter every month! It is very informative, nicely designed and with community updates. Love the pictures. Happy Birthday to all June practitioners. Looking forward for more enjoyable and calm moments on the mat.
Happy 8th Birthday to YogaSukham!
Not to get too philosophical, but we as humans have evolved in tribes and are wired for connection and belonging. Today when we are at our best at connectivity, the human connection has been lost with increased isolation, And Yogasukham is a true oasis! I’m sure there have been many more challenges than what a few editorial paragraphs can convey, and so I am even more grateful that you’ve continued to keep the studio thriving and welcoming. Your journey is truly inspiring- thank you for sharing it with us!
It is a joy to see the OG practitioners still at the studio, another testament to the strength of this community. Congratulations to Manisha on the Teacher Spotlight – she is a powerhouse of enthusiasm and positivity, and her classes are a so fun to attend!
What a fun day at the Yogasukham picnic! Another beautiful example of how practitioners and their families are welcomed and made to feel at home! I look forward to many more of these in 2026!
I enjoy this monthly newsletter, learning more about the people who make Yogasukham such a special place!
I think back to those COVID days and I know for a fact being a part of the virtual Yogasukham family was what helped me get through those trying days! Happy 8th birthday and wishing the studio many more!
Congratulations on completing 8 glorious years of Yogasukham. Wish you many more years of growth, breath and community.
