Master Anant personifies yoga as a joyful practice and a way of life. His greatest fulfilment in teaching yoga comes from witnessing how practicing presence and mindfulness in yoga has created positive and impactful changes in his students’ mental and physical wellbeing.
Growing up in Ahmedabad, India, Master Anant had practised yoga from a young age. His classical and tradition yoga foundation was established at the Sivananada Ashram, a recognized institute of Gujarat University in Ahmedabad, India, where he was personally mentored by the late guru, his Holiness Sri swami Adhyatmanandji Maharaj.
Fluent in English, Hindi and Gujarati, Master Anant would teach yoga while concurrently pursuing his formal education. Students of Master Anant are not limited to yoga enthusiasts of the Ashram. Master Anant had also taught yoga for groups like the Defence personnel at National Defence Academy in Pune, India, the Chinese Yoga Association in Sijhih city, Taipei, Taiwan, as well as the Taiwan provincial Physical Educational Yoga Exercise Association. For his exceptional yoga work, Master Anant was awarded the Yoga Prachar Ratana by the H.E. Governor of Gujarat, India in 2008.
2009 marked a key milestone for Master Anant where he further pursued his passion of teaching yoga in relocating to Singapore.
With a down to earth and affable personality, Master Anant would share his knowledge through numerous yoga workshops and overseas yoga retreats (Thailand and Bhutan). It is indeed befitting that he was chosen as “Yoga Ambassador” by the Government of Kerala, India in 2018.
Today, from his own dedicated personal practice and a culmination of over eighteen years of yoga teaching experience, Master Anant teaches a unique blend of traditionl and contemporary yoga and meditation styles. This includes Hatha yoga, Sun Salutations Series, Pranayama meditation, Yoga Therapy, Yoga Stretch, Body opening, Hot yoga, Aerial Yoga, Wheel yoga and Rope/Wall yoga.
Through Yoga Wave, Master Anant’s intent is of creating and empowering a yoga community that benefits not only from the physical practice, but also develops awareness and presence of mind. And it is this quality of awareness that has the calming effect on our mind and boosts our mental well-being.
