From Passion to Purpose: The Story of Samidha Kolhatkar, Founder of Yogsutras

Every journey begins with a single step, and for Samidha, it began with a simple practice on the yoga mat. What started as a simple daily ritual of movement and breath eventually became a lifelong devotion, leading her to establish Yogasutras by Samidha. Today, she is recognized not only for her holistic approach to yoga but also for her specialization in chakra cleansing and alignment, blending ancient wisdom with modern needs to help individuals find balance, clarity, and vitality.

From the Mat to the Mind

In the beginning, Samidha showed up to her yoga mat with no expectations—only dedication, patience, and trust. This simple yet powerful act laid the foundation for a journey that would later redefine her life. She began noticing physical changes, shifts in energy, and eventually, subtle transformations in her mental state. Her curiosity deepened, leading her to pursue a formal Yoga Teacher Training program—an experience she now calls one of the most life-changing decisions she has ever made.

The mat became her mirror. Every value she aspired to live by—discipline, focus, surrender, curiosity—was cultivated through her practice. And as her personal practice grew, so did her passion to share yoga with others.

Chakra Healing and Energy Alignment

What sets Samidha apart is her deep work with energy systems. She specializes in chakra cleansing and alignment, understanding the intricate relationships between the body’s energy centers, the panchamahabhuta (five elements), and prana (life force).

By integrating this knowledge into her sessions, she offers a remedial and restorative approach to yoga that goes beyond physical well-being. Her chakra-focused practices help practitioners release energetic blockages, balance emotions, and enhance overall vitality, making yoga a truly holistic healing journey.

Building Yogsutras: A Holistic Offering

Through Yogsutras by Samidha, Samidha has curated a space where tradition meets modern relevance. Her offerings are designed to cater to diverse needs—across age groups, lifestyles, and health conditions. Whether it’s Hatha Yoga, Power Yoga, Yin Yoga, or practices for core strength, gut health, menopause, prenatal and postpartum wellness, her programs are thoughtfully structured.

Yogsutras hosts in-person and online classes, one-on-one sessions, webinars, retreats, and specialized wellness programs for corporates and educational institutions. Whether someone is seeking to maintain daily wellness or navigate a specific health challenge, the space offers something for everyone. Her efforts reflect a deep understanding of how yoga can adapt to contemporary life without losing its ancient wisdom.

Impacting Lives Through Yoga

For Samidha, yoga is more than a practice—it's a way of life. She believes in making people fall in love with yoga in the most nourishing way possible. Her goal is simple: to help practitioners integrate yoga into their daily rhythm so naturally that it becomes a part of their being. It’s in this regularity, she believes, that true transformation begins.

With every class, session, and interaction, Samidha offers not just technique, but connection and care. She encourages students to explore yoga beyond the postures—guiding them to realize its deeper impact on clarity, resilience, and inner peace.

Teaching Style

Samidha’s teaching style is rooted in awareness, balance, and inner connection. She creates a space where each session becomes a journey—guided, intentional, and immersive. Her approach is not just instructional but transformational, encouraging participants to listen deeply to their own breath, body, and energy.

With a blend of traditional yogic wisdom and contemporary understanding, she weaves together:

• Functional movement and alignment-based asana

• Structured breathwork (Pranayama) with emphasis on ratios, retention, and rhythm

• Subtle energy awareness, integrating chakra alignment and pranic flow

• Elemental understanding through the lens of Panchamahabhutas (Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Ether)

• Self-reflection tools, meditative pauses, and lifestyle integration

  
  

She adapts her teachings to individual and group needs—balancing challenge with accessibility, and depth with clarity—making her sessions relevant whether someone is new to yoga or deepening their sadhana.

Anchored in Wisdom

Her academic pursuit—a Master’s degree in Yoga—allowed her to dive into ancient scriptures like the Patanjali Yoga Sutras and the Bhagavad Gita, enriching her practice and teachings. One sutra continues to be her guiding light:

"योगश्चित्तवृत्तिनिरोधः"Yogas citta vrtti nirodhah—Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind.

This timeless wisdom not only anchors her personal journey but also inspires every offering under Yogsutras by Samidha.

Samidha’s story is not just about mastering yoga—it's about embodying it. From a curious practitioner to a deeply committed guide, her path reflects how purpose can bloom from patience, and how one person's quiet journey inward can become a light for many others.
