Arpita Shah

Arpita was born in India and came to the United States when she was 18 years old. She was raised in a traditional Hindu family, where chanting, kirtan and meditation were part of her daily rituals. Her first introduction to asana practice came from her Grandfather, her Guruji. She started her asana practice under his guidance and it became her daily ritual. In 2008 she decided to take it a step further and did her 200 hour teacher training with Purple Lotus Yoga. Arpita is a certified yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance and has had the privilege of studying under very talented international teachers such as Rod Styker, Dharma Mittra, Judith Lasater, Lesli Kamainof, Doug Keller and Pandit Rajmani Tigunait
Besides her regular teaching schedule, Arpita also offers private yoga classes, one on one Ayurveda and Nutrition consultation and Yoga Retreats throughout the countries. . Additionally, she regularly conducts workshops on Ayurveda Cooking and Mantra Meditation. In 2010, she decided to combine her passion for travel and her love of yoga by leading a Yoga Retreat.
