Mukunda Somisetti

Hello, and welcome to The River Rhythm.

I’m Mukunda, a Yoga Alliance certified yoga teacher with additional training in children's yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Weight management through yoga.

Before starting The River Rhythm, I worked in public health sector and later within the NHS as a Research Facilitator. My professional background gave me valuable insight into the importance of preventative health, wellbeing, and evidence-informed approaches to improving quality of life.

As a child, I was fortunate to learn yoga asana and pranayama from a yoga teacher at school. Although I did not fully understand the science behind these practices at the time, I experienced their benefits throughout my life. No matter how many years passed, the yoga I learned as a young girl continued to support me physically and mentally during different stages of life.

My formal training helped me connect that personal experience with a deeper understanding of yoga.

Whether you are completely new to yoga or have previous experience, you are welcome. I look forward to supporting you on your journey towards greater balance and wellbeing.

Hello! I'm Siva, a certified RYT 200 yoga teacher, professionally trained at a respected yoga school, with a passion for helping people cultivate greater strength, balance, mindfulness, and overall wellbeing.

My yoga journey began five years ago when I discovered that yoga could help me slow down, manage stress, and develop a deeper connection between body and mind. What started as a personal practice soon became an important part of my everyday life.

As I continued my journey, I experienced firsthand the positive impact that yoga can have on both physical and mental wellbeing. Inspired by these experiences, I decided to undertake professional teacher training so that I could share the benefits of yogic practices with others.

In my classes, I strive to create a supportive and welcoming environment where students can explore movement, breath, and mindfulness at their own pace. Whether you are new to yoga or looking to deepen your practice, my aim is to help you develop greater body awareness, confidence, and inner balance.

I believe yoga is more than just physical exercise. It is a lifelong practice that can help us cultivate resilience, clarity, and a greater sense of wellbeing both on and off the mat.

I look forward to being part of your yoga journey.
