Aruna’s father Dr. N.C. Nagaraj introduced her to yoga at the age of 14 in India. As a physician, he advocated the physiological and mental benefits of this practice. Aruna’s study of yoga was complemented with spiritual studies provided by her mother, Padma. Later, Aruna studied hatha yoga with Dr. Anitha in India. She has since expanded her knowledge to include the methods of B.K.S. Iyengar and the Bihar school of yoga. Aruna has been practicing the asanas (postures), pranayama (breath control) and dhyana (meditation) for over 20 years. She has received RYT 200 certification from yoga alliance.
