Darsak Shah

CYKT

Darsak’s inspiration to teach yoga to children was discovered by accident, as he saw his then 18 month old son, Aaron (now 14 years old!!) copying the postures and making animal noises as he held private classes at home with family and friends.

The inspiration for Yoga Dynamix began in a spiritual town, called Rishikesh, nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas, India whilst attending an International Yoga Festival in March 2008.

Darsak and a friend he met on a trip, Fal Jobanputra, had the same vision to teach children yoga from their own personal experiences prior to the trip and after seeing the children at the Parmarth Niketan Ashram living a simple yet a happy fulfilling life with strong emphasis on yoga as a foundation gave birth to Yoga Dynamix. Darsak has continued to grow Yoga Dynamix to what it is today.

Following this, he went onto commencing the training with Yoga Kids International in 2008 and graduated as a Certified Yoga Kids Teacher (CYKT) in 2009. His classes are non-judgmental, non-competitive and playful. He works on connecting the body, spirit, and mind, bringing a sense of stillness and appreciation, incorporating his love of nature into the practice with guided meditations and symbolically through the poses, challenging students to explore themselves with an open heart, open mind and most importantly, with compassion.

The classes at Yoga Dynamix have evolved and significantly expanded over the last 12 years and we are blessed to have a lovely team of teachers like-minded and passionate to make a difference to both children and adults through their own unique journeys and life experiences
