Amisha Yoga & Meditation

About Amisha:

Amisha is delighted to be offering this retreat in her motherland of India, where both her parents are from. Amisha has spent extensive time in India since she was a child learning about her culture. Having grown up in the UK, she is able to offer an international perspective to yoga, combined with a native heart.

With a love of yoga and meditation that has spanned over a decade, Amisha Ghadiali teaches vinyasa style yoga that is influenced by the anusara tradition, flowing with nature. Her classes are strong yet relaxing, focused on clear alignment and moving from the heart. She has a calming presence and uses playful theming, mantra and experience of exploring world wisdom traditions, to leave her students with magic, grounding and joy they can bring into their daily lives.

Amisha has used these practices in her own life to work with trauma including recovering from being run over by a pick-up truck. She has lived that typical stressful busy london life, and found that bringing a soulful healthy approach to her every day made living in the city much more joyful, rewarding and balanced. This inspires her to teach in London and offer retreats and workshops for a deeper experience.

She is a reiki master and intuitive healer who works with clients to clear blockages for greater freedom and empowerment. Amisha has been designing jewellery for her own label with the tagline “elegance rebellion” since 2006 working with semi-precious stones. She brings all this awareness to offer a holsitic approach to her clients and students.

Amisha is also a writer and speaker on all aspects of conscious and green living. A big part of her ‘yoga’ is about how we relate to the world around us and make a difference. How we embody our values. Her words have appeared in publications including The Huffington Post, Rebelle Society & Ecouterre. She has spoken at events and festivals around the world such as TEDx Oxbridge, Sunday Papers Live & Burning Man. Amisha is Co-Founder of 108 London, a yoga studio without walls that curates events across London.
