Dhana has been studying Iyengar Yoga for over 10 years, and currently apprentices with one of Canada's Senior Iyengar teachers, Ingelise Nherlan. In the course of her yoga training she has also studied with Erich Schiffman, Aadil Palkivala, James Nicholson, and Janice Clarfield.

Dhana and her six year old daughter Maiya have recently returned from living in Japan. She ran her own yoga school with group and private classes in power yoga, hatha, pre and post natal and kids, taught nutrition and was an extremely busy birthing assistant!

'Little Feet Kids Yoga' evolved out of Dhana's 2 passions, children and yoga! Blending the classic art of yoga with a sprinkling of spirituality, and a lot fun has proven an ideal recipe for her popular childrens classes. Her extremely solid background in anatomy, physiology and nutrition, coupled with her vast amount of life experience lend wonderfully to her informative and gentle teachings.
