Ananda Joy

Ananda Joy's path began at 19 when she left her home in Australia to study at the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre in Kerala, India. Over the following decade she deepened her practice across Rishikesh, Mysore, and the meditation forests of northern Thailand. She is certified in Vinyasa, Yin, Restorative, and Trauma-Informed Yoga, and is a dedicated Vipassana practitioner with three 10-day silent retreats completed. Her pranayama lineage runs through the Krishnamacharya tradition. Ananda Joy's classes are known for their intelligent sequencing, precise breath integration, and the extraordinary quality of presence she brings to every session. She teaches from the body first, always returning to the felt sense as the true teacher.
