Deepa’s yoga journey began as a child in Suriname, where she was inspired by her father’s practice of asanas like Bow and Peacock Pose. Years later, in The Hague, she started attending yoga classes, later continuing her practice in New Orleans and eventually moving to Rockville. There, she deepened her practice through yoga teacher training at extendYoga Studio.

Now, Deepa guides her students in their journey of self-discovery, helping them find stillness on the mat and embrace the essence of yoga, *Chitta vritti nirodhah*, the stilling of the mind.
