About Yoga Bharati
Vanithakka, the guiding force of Yogashree, is a multi-skilled Sadhaki (Achiever) and an inspiring yoga teacher lovingly called Akka. She has trained under renowned acharyas including Sri Raghavendra Swamiji Malladihalli, Swami Atmanandapuri, Sri Ajith Kumar, and Sri B.K.S. Iyengar, and is associated with Vivekananda Kendra and Vipashyana Dhyan Kendra.
Her spiritual journey began at the age of 11, inspired by the powerful speech of freedom fighter Shri I.N.A. Ramarayaru, which ignited her dedication toward national service and social upliftment.
Alongside her academics in Commerce, Vanithakka deepened her knowledge in Yoga, Shastra, and Adhyatma, following the teachings of Shri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, whom she reveres as her Spiritual Guru.
In 1971, she joined the ashram of Shri Raghavendra Swamiji, where she mastered Yogasana, Pranayama, Dhyana, Shatkriya, Ayurveda, Angamardhana, and Mane Maddu (home remedies).
She is also trained in Pranic Healing, Reiki, Acupressure, and Naturopathy, making her a holistic wellness expert.
