Shanti Kumari was born in Mexico City where she began her yoga training at the age of five. Her grandfather ,Pandurang Khankhoje, who was a Brahmin from India passed on the tradition of practicing yoga through his daughter and Shanti's mother, Maya.

Shanti continued her practice of asanas throughout the years due to her professional ballet background. However in 2000 Shanti began to deepen her studies independantly as well as through the completion of the Intensive Forrest Yoga Teacher Training Certification Program. Her independent studies include but are not limited to the Bihar School of Yoga Research Institute, B.S. Iyengar, Acharya Keshav Dev, Tantric Studies (diverse),

Montreal, Can., Casa Aztlan. Indepedantly for groups, semi-private and private classes in Turkey, New Orleans, Arkansas, Mexico City, and Chicago.

Shanti Kumari's Yoga style derives from an extensive research and study that remains a continuous process. Strong attention is given to injury prevention, preventive wellness and although the classes which last up to 2 and 1/2 hours can be very challenging, nothing is to be accomplished in a strenuous manner.

Shanti has a 12 year experience teaching all levels of physical endurance and stamina including children from the age of 5 until adults in their 90's.
