A Registered Yoga School (RYS 200) with Yoga Alliance. Graduates of our accredited programs are eligible to register as Registered Yoga Teachers (RYTs) with Yoga Alliance.
A comprehensive and holistic approach to yoga teachings which extends well beyond yoga asana (postures), encompassing the philosophical, psychological, and spiritual aspects of yoga — guiding students toward a deeper, more authentic connection with the Self.
At the heart of our methodology is personalised guidance from Principal Yoga Teacher Veena — a Registered Level 3 Senior Teacher with Yoga Australia and E-RYT 200 and E-RYT-500 level with Yoga Alliance. Each student is supported in uncovering their inner yogi, deepening their connection with body, breath, and mind through a journey of self-inquiry, conscious awareness, and transformation.

Testimonials
See what our students are already feeling & observing everyday in their life:
“Yoga has brought me a deeper awareness of my body, my emotions, my strengths & weaknesses. I feel a lot more relaxed and calmer since I have started practicing yoga at Sri Ma School”, Janine.
“First of all thank you so much Veena for teaching us authentic and true yoga. All this time, I was looking for yoga and now I am satisfied that I have found real yoga teacher. It has helped my body and mind both”, Chetna.
“Since starting yoga as a beginner, I have started to feel a real difference in my posture, strength & movement. I’ve also been an asthmatic since childhood and have found that learning different breathing techniques (pranayama) and putting them into daily practice, as shown by our master teacher, I am finding I have more control and am using less medication.” Tracey Studin.
“I have much more confidence to do more physical things in everyday life. I feel that I can move more freely.”, Debbie Fraser.
"After doing yoga for a few months now, I am stronger, more flexible, and able to deal with stress better. And my digestive issues are much more manageable”, Chante Studin.
