Our Founders

Good teaching begins with understanding the person.

Every student arrives with a different body, a different history and a different reason for practising. At ALIGN, we take the time to notice those differences. We explain, offer guidance and help you understand the purpose behind the practice.

Hitesh J, The Working Yogi

“My work explores how yoga can become a steady part of a life filled with responsibility.

I bring together alignment, breath and attention to the mind through clear and structured teaching. Years in yoga education, two published books and experience across institutional settings have shaped the way I teach today."

Seema, Women Aligned

“I teach women who want to make space for themselves while continuing to care for everything else in their lives.

My approach combines alignment-based yoga, Yoga-Pilates and guided rest & recovery. As a mother and practitioner, I understand the value of a practice that meets you where you are."

Our Approach

Understand your alignment.
Make it your own.

A clear explanation can change how you experience a pose. At ALIGN, we help you understand what you are doing, why an instruction matters and how to use support where you need it. As you become more familiar with the practice, you begin to approach it with greater confidence.

01

Move with
understanding

Explore alignment through clear instructions, careful observation and the thoughtful use of props.

02

Give attention to
your breath

Learn breathwork, pranayama and dhyana gradually, with guidance at each stage.

03

Build a lasting
routine

Find a place for practice within your week, alongside work, family and the demands of everyday life.

ALIGN Alignment Yoga & Teaching Depth
Teaching Depth
Experience that informs every class.

Our founders have taught in yoga schools, workplaces, defence programmes and healthcare settings. These experiences have deepened their understanding of how people learn and what different groups need from a teacher. Hitesh's background includes senior faculty experience at Shriyog Institute of Iyengar Yoga and the authorship of Progress Towards Harmony and The Align Method. Seema's experience includes teaching at Forbes Marshall and Ecolab, and in the Cipla Palliative Care programme, alongside her work with students in India and online. At ALIGN, this experience comes through in the care given to each explanation and teaching decision.
