Divya Balakrishnan is a yoga educator who began her journey with yoga as a child. She received her RYT-200 certification from Hot Spot Yoga in Oakland, CA, and has a Bachelor’s degree in Art Practice and a Bachelor’s degree in Theater & Performance Studies from UC Berkeley.

Having experienced the skills that yoga provides firsthand, Divya breaks down yogic techniques in a way that is transferable off the mat, turning a practice into a lifestyle. As a digital nomad, she ensures her classes can be done anywhere to assist students in establishing a daily practice even while traveling. Her classes range from vigorous, strengthening Vinyasa flows to restorative practices focused on building a strong mind-body connection and a solid foundation. When on the mat with Divya, expect thorough and inclusive instruction while being challenged in unexpected ways.

Divya is passionate about celebrating diversity and advocates for collective wellness as a form of social justice. As a Tamil-American, she never saw herself represented in the industry born out of her own culture and vowed to change that one day. Divya’s classes incorporate philosophy, martial forms, pranayama, asana, mudras, and ensure that students experience the traditions of yoga as it was intended – holistically. She hopes her efforts help people surpass their perceived limitations and discover their inner spark.

Styles

Core-Focused Flow

Divya Balakrishnan • Vinyasa Flow

Build heat (and strength!) in this core-focused Vinyasa practice that adds some spice to your flow. Explore Low Boat to High Boat, Bird Dog, a Warrior sequence, and Crunches in Down Dog before finishing with a well-deserved cool-down and hip openers. This class previously aired on October 31, 2024.

Meditation For Productivity

Divya Balakrishnan • Mindfulness

This Mindfulness meditation utilizes breathwork, visualization, and Dharana (concentration) to weed out distracting thoughts and help you embrace a still mind. You’ll practice honing your ability to focus so that you can be more productive throughout your day. This class previously aired on October 30, 2024.

Go Slow Flow

Divya Balakrishnan • Vinyasa Flow

This Vinyasa practice builds heat slowly before getting into long, deep holds. You’ll start with a gentle spinal warm-up, Malasana (Squat), Crescent, and Half Split, then flow through Sun Salutations and Warriors before sinking into Pigeon and Bound Angle. This class previously aired on October 24, 2024.
