Testimonials

“Take care of your body, it’s your home.” This is exactly what I am doing. My first time practicing yoga was in 2013 in Washington DC, after being skeptical for years, preferring Tae Bo, Zumba or running outdoors over yoga. Unfortunately, after I moved back to Germany, I stopped doing yoga for no reasons known to me. However, the stress of studying and working simultaneously led me back to yoga in 2017, although I didn’t practice it regularly.

When I first encountered Deepa’s onine posts and all the positivity she spread, I wished I could join her yoga classes, but working as a pharmacist and living far from her location kept getting in the way.

However, since the pandemic started, I was able to join her yoga classes via zoom. I was amazed by how calm and focused her teaching was. She is ab absolutely great instructor who explains everything so clearly. I noticed immediate results with her zoom classes. The best feeling ever is that as soon as I get home from work, I feel calm yet energized, and sleep much better at night. For that, I’m deeply grateful to how wonderfully talented of a yoga instructor Deepa is.

To anyone considering yoga for a peace of mind during these trying times, I highly recommend Deepa Sapra Yoga. I trust that you will find her class exciting and empowering, just as much as I do. You’ll forget the class is held virtually!

Discovering Deepa has been one of the best things, I ever done. I essentially wanted to start yoga to ground myself in feminine energy after years of high intensity Bhangra and weights. Little did I know this would lead me on a journey of meditation and self appreciation.

The classes via zoom are no different to her classes in person. She brings that same vibe, that same energy and that same therapy applied in her face-to-face classes. Allowing for our own limits, she explains perfectly how to adjust for our comfort and listen to our bodies, whilst challenging yourself. I will say again what I always share, try yoga with Deepa, you will not regret it.

I've tried Yoga in the past & was convinced it wasn't for me. Having been a weight lifting, home workout & pilates kinda lady, I recognise that finding Deepa was meant to be.

Her teaching style, the privacy of practising at home & the affordability makes this my best decision of 2020.

Yoga is a mind & body connection experience. It can be challenging (oh boy it can) yet you genuinely release the "issues in your tissues" - it goes beyond just physical movement.

Never had I connected with the practice as I can with Deepa. She is WAY more than a teacher. Her practice has been nothing less than life changing - if you think I sound nuts, just give it a go to know!

It has been an absolute pleasure to have Deepa introduced into my life. I always had a let’s say ‘turbulent’ relationship with exercising but in the last few years I have really started to look into keeping my body healthy and with that came throwing myself into strength training which I love and thought that was enough for me.

However, little did I know that a small introduction to Deepa meant, I completely rethought ‘loving my body.’ I always thought my place wasn’t on the yoga mat but in fact yoga has become a part of not only my health journey but also the journey into myself.

Deepa soothes you into positions you would think are impossible and explains how it helps you which makes you want to try that bit harder. It has been an absolute delight to have, not only had yoga sessions in person but now also virtually. The moon practices are honestly something else! I would highly recommend.

Not only is she a fantastic yoga therapist, she is an amazing ally. Constantly providing support and guidance whenever it is needed. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am grateful to have found someone with such a passion for what she loves but also have a great connection with.

Deepa kindly gave me a taster session of her yoga in Feb 2020 and I was hooked there and then…it wasn’t just yoga, it was yoga therapy – her tone of voice, her approach and innovative application of her deep knowledge of yoga totally blew me away.

Deepa helped me learn to be aware of my body and the benefits of mindful breathing and good posture and to use yoga to feel better emotionally, physically and mentally. She recognises my feelings and limitations and suggests specific advice which for me has been a game changer.

Deepa is a deeply authentic and intuitive yoga teacher – a rare and beautiful gem. I am very lucky that I found Deepa and would recommend her to absolutely anyone. If you have not been passionate about yoga yet, you will be!

Deepa is an incredible Yoga Therapist. I have been to different types of yoga and teachers but have never experienced something so profound and practical as this.

She intuitively knows how to guide you, stretch your body and manipulate you into position you didn’t think were possible. I actually feel like I am floating on air after the lesson. The movements, the ambience and her incredible energy leave you wanting more.

Everyone should experience Deepa’s yoga – it will change you and leave and indelible mark.

I started yoga classes with Deepa almost 2 years ago. When the pandemic hit the UK and yoga classes were cancelled until further notice, I was hoping that this is going to be short term. Then the lockdown begun and I started looking for ways to stay calm while managing family, kids, and work from home. It seemed a lot to balance and due to gyms beings closed I has no ‘me’ time. Deepa contacted me regarding amazing Zoom yoga sessions and I couldn’t be happier. Working from home gave me the flexibility to do early morning or evening sessions. I have always loved Deepa’s sessions but since we have in lockdown it is a great way to de-stress while balancing work, family and kids from home.

Deepa brings deep focus on technique which has really helped me to develop my practice in a safe and sustainable way. Her warmth and humour also create a welcoming environment in which to try new things without fear of failing. Meditation at the end of the class leaves me feeling relaxed and centered. Thank you Deepa!

Having taken a break from yoga during my first pregnancy, I returned to it in a very committed way following my first class with Deepa. Prior to the break, I had been practicing yoga for a number of years, but I hadn’t quite connected with it spiritually until I met Deepa. There was absolutely an instant connection; which is key for any mind, body and soul nurturing and healing practice.

Deepa’s knowledge and experience means she draws directly form the Eastern roots of yoga and teaches yoga in its truest essence, at it was meant to be; in a simplistic and easy to follow way. She is a very clear, articulate and intuitive teacher. My confidence in being able to practice again has surely returned in the very short space of time in which I’ve been attending Zoom classes with Deepa. I would highly recommend yoga with Deepa. Just try one class and I am sure you’ll be coming back for more!

Yoga with Deepa is a totally different experience than any other yoga class I have attended in the past.

The warmth, love and genuine passion for helping her students is overflowing and consistent.

I love the way she connects the mind to the body with every posture. I love the way she encourages you to push yourself, but at the same time allows you to feel ok wherever you get to.

The breathing practices and meditation are amazing. If you are thinking of joining a yoga class, you wont be disappointed with Deepa’s sessions.

For many years I’ve wanted to practice but it wasn’t happening. I trialled with different teachers and I still couldn’t connect. Not until I met Deepa and attended her yoga session.

Deepa has a natural way of teaching, a therapeutic way and she taught me the art of yoga. Her approach is gentle yet knows when to push you, she showed me how to embrace and honour my feelings through yoga. Always willing to go beyond her classes and answers questions. She showed me a new way of life and I’ll never forget that.

I was super excited to try my first virtual zoom session with Deepa and needless to say it was so relaxing. Since my little one was born I have had zero time to myself so it was a great way to switch off, stretch and unwind. Her voice is just so soothing, and by the end of the class you are left in a complete state of relaxation. I miss our one on one sessions (pre covid), & this zoom class really helped remind me to start investing in myself.

really disliked yoga. I might as well start with the truth because Deepa is one of my close girls. I know she lived and breathed yoga, but I was very cynical about how it could all benefit me, even though I had enjoyed fitness/gym for numerous years. However, having lower back issues, and facing the daily realities life throws at each of us, made me say to Deepa, ‘I think I should give one of your classes a go.’

Being on the yoga mat made me feel challenged and hopeful. Deepa as a yoga therapist brings the sense of empathy, comfortability and calmness you need. Given the current stresses we are all facing, zoom yoga sessions with Deepa have been a blessing, and essential for my overall mental well-being and self care. She concisely guides you through the poses and explains what benefits they will have for your body/mind. I personally know the level of attention and care she gives to each class she provides.

What you start to learn on the yoga mat, through breath work and also her meditations, can be applied off the mat to your personal/professional life too.

Zoom yoga with Deepa impacts you on several levels. As a pragmatic non-believer, that has been such an incredible thing to experience, for my mind and body. It is worth invest that time for yourself and Deepa is the ideal teacher during that journey.

I connected with Deepa through the Inspire Club and attended my first session via Zoom. Of all the yoga I have tried I found Deepa's classes where I connected best. She gets to the root of the problem, her yoga helps you connect spiritually as well as physically with your body. Her authenticity, drive and passion really shines through when she teaches. You can go at your own pace and can easily catch up. She has taught me to honour your body and listen to it.

You can really feel the warmth in Deepa's sessions and it's like she is right there with you! After doing the classes I have felt so relaxed and at peace opposed to other yoga practices I have done. I would highly recommend Deepa as she is a beautiful soul and she won't let you or your body down.

I participated in Deepa Sapra Yoga’s Strawberry Moon Yoga Practice. It was a strange day. I was feeling particularly agitated, on edge and not really in the mood for yoga.

Prior to the session, Deepa sent out some prep work on setting intentions and what we’d like to surrender. I decided to partake in this practice as I’m facing lots of change at the moment.

At the last minute, I decided I should join – what did I have to lose?

I cannot perfectly articulate how I felt during the practice. I have never experienced anything quite like it. Given the day had felt so heavy and uncertain, my mind, body and soul felt wholly engaged with the practice. Deepa’s narrative, was soothing and everything seemed to sync so beautifully to all the emotions and sensations that I was experiencing.

I haven’t felt like I’ve been able to mentally engage with my body in a really long time and it happened after years during the Strawberry Moon Yoga Practice.

Deepa thank you, for gifting me something that my mind, body and soul yearned for.

I joined Deepa Sapra Yoga after someone shared her post for 54 Sun Salutations. I thought I would love to give it ago. After contacting Deepa who by the way was very welcoming, I joined her Saturday morning zoom class and was amazed how much I thoroughly enjoyed it. I then realised that she was doing other sessions via Zoom and have never looked back. Not only do I love the Yoga aspect of it but love the way Deepa explains the spiritual side of life and the different breathing techniques. I also love the new moon and full moon yoga. I feel that not only am I physically doing yoga but also mentally. Thanks to lockdown I’ve discovered Deepa Sapra Yoga and haven’t looked back.

I have been doing yoga with Deepa for a while ow and must say she is just amazing. She strives to understand your body and mind and pushes you accordingly. She is always trying to make you a better person not just physically but emotionally and mentally as well. I can go on and on about her but alas words would not be enough for this wonderful human that she is.

I signed up to Deepa’s zoom yoga sessions after realising I wasn’t making any time for myself during lockdown.

I was a big fan of hot yoga when I was living in London and knew the benefits if has for the body-mind-soul. That’s the void I was craving to fill.

I had come across Deepa on Instagram and reached out to her asking if she offered virtual sessions which she didn’t pre-lockdown. Few weeks later I saw her new virtual yoga sessions on zoom and snapped my weekly spots!

Deepa has a very warm style of practicing yoga. It’s not just about the postures. She uses beautiful metaphors to get your body and mind connected. I love the way she’s taught about chakras and dosh type through her sessions. So much food for though and space for personal growth. Deepa’s sessions always leave me feeling more grounded and relaxed.

I hope to continue my zoom yoga sessions with Deepa well into the future. And look forward to meeting her for a personal session when I make my next trip to UK!

I’m so grateful to have found Deepa for so many reason, not least being her authentic yoga. This isn’t a standard western take on an ancient spiritual practice but deeper wisdom and understanding.

Deepa has a deep connection to yoga and that permeates through her lessons and spreads to us as her students. She is gentle, but not afraid to get you to push beyond your boundaries both mental and physical. After each session you know you’ve don’t what you are meant to because you feel a sense of peace and clarity but you also know you moved your body.

Deepa you are an absolute powerhouse and it is my pleasure to get yoga sessions in with you.

I joined Deepa's virtual yoga classes after being inspired by Rupinder's @a.w.m.b Insta stories on Deepa Sapra Yoga.

I feel so blessed that I started joining her for early morning yoga sessions.

Within 3 weeks, I can see so much improvement in my physical flexibility and mental health.

Deepa brings so much positivity in each session and always encourage us to take this yoga experience 'off the mat’.

I wondered how can I experience yoga off the mat?

As a result, when I start talking about anything negative, I realise it very quickly and try to talk positive. This brings peace and positivity in my mind.

Deepa always says listen to your body and feel what it wants to say?

I took her advice and started noticing that my muscles kind of tense up when I start thinking or talking about something stressful. As soon as, I change the topic I feel my body relax and calm.

I am so thankful to Deepa for bringing such a great experience in yoga and then sharing it with us. She is an amazing and very helpful Yogi.

If you haven't joined her class, please join at least one class and feel the vibration in your body.

Deepa keep inspiring people to Love Yoga!

I grew up with Deepa and we had lost touch for a long time and only recently got the chance to reconnect through social media. I am a true believer that the universe gives you what you need, when you need it. I had no idea that one thing I needed in my life was Deepa’s yoga classes. I have taken many yoga classes in the past but none has compared to the first class I took today with Deepa. She brings a sense of calmness and ease to all the different poses. Some of the poses I have done before and some I haven’t, her explanations make it so easy for me to manipulate my body into those poses. My body has been so stiff and achy during this time of quarantine and after the class, as I walked up the stairs I noticed that my thighs were not aching, as I sat down to start working I noticed that the pain in my lower back was lessened. I don’t know if it was magic or what but I’m a believer now and I can’t wait for my next class with the talented Deepa!!

Yoga with Deepa has changed my life! This is not an understatement it’s a fact!

For years I only practised high intensity work out sessions such as boxercise, spinning, bootcamp & HIIT classes. As a result my rhomboids were overused and very sore.

After a few classes, the aches and pains I used to have, have eased. No longer am I in constant pain.

To have this result already I cannot wait to see what other benefits yoga is going to give me and I know I have a long way to to improve my flexibility.

I cannot thank Deepa enough for encouraging me and helping me become a better version of myself.

Thank you Deepa!

I was drawn to try out one of Deepa’s yoga classes via zoom. I could instantly sense she was very kind, genuine, warm and a spiritual soul. I knew I wanted to practice yoga but had some reservations doing it over a zoom class. I plucked up the courage and joined one of her early morning classes. I found it really energising, relaxing and quite spiritual too.

Practicing the class via zoom worked just as well as attending a class in person. Deepa is very clear and concise in her instruction and demonstrations. She is extremely knowledgeable and touches on the spirituality that is connected with yoga. I am really enjoying my new yoga journey with Deepa and look forward to this new path of self discovery.

I decided to join Deepa’s zoom yoga sessions after being hugely recommended to do by several people. They say it only works well with the right teacher and all the other testimonials said Deepa was fantastic but I wanted to be my own judge.

Deepa is kind, clear and encouraging-wanting you to push yourself but know your own limits. This is central to her teaching style. There was an instant authenticity in her delivery of the practice.

After my first session, I realised just how much work I had to do on myself. When I messaged Deepa to that effect, she was so helpful and honest and it left me wanting to continue. Since then, I’ve felt myself go from strength to strength (albeit slow progress!) with Deepa’s encouragement and in between sessions she is always so so helpful, giving more tips on how to build my strength.

Her love for yoga is so evident – its so effortless and that is how you know it is real love! Could not recommend her sessions enough.

Over the past few months I have been so very lucky to join Deepa on her zoom classes. I literally jumped for joy when I found out she was going to teach online!!

From my very first class with her in May I was bowled over by the authenticity of her practice. Deepa’s teaching style is like none other that I have ever experienced.

For the first time an instructor actually took the practice way beyond merely achieving advanced bendy poses. She fully connected me to my body and breath teaching the very essence of yoga asanas.

For the first time I understood the health benefit of each asana, the mudhras and how to do the pranayama breathing meditations. I had no idea of the far-teaching benefits of breathing in a certain way until Deepa enlightened me! I connected the physical practice to something far more holistic thanks to the way Deepa structures her teaching and guidance.

I cannot recommend Deepa enough. I fully endorse the journey she takes you on through her deceptively simple way of communicating such a complex practice. My relationship with my body has transformed and I’ve finally started meditating regularly. Physically I’m fitter slimmer and stronger. The ripple effect has touched every part of my life. And who doesn’t want that? Just sign up already while you can!

Deepa is an amazing yoga therapist. Yoga is an art, and she is an incredible teacher. The way she expresses each move and helps you connect with your body is mind-blowing. I believe everyone comes into your life for a reason and a purpose and Deepa has motivated me to feel better, be better and just breathe!

I have been practicing yoga since January 2020 and I’ve never felt so grounded in both my body and soul. I have pushed my body into a space I didn’t know I could do, I even managed to do a head-stand (something I didn’t know was possible!) I was a bit reluctant to have a zoom call with Deepa because I wasn’t sure whether it would be the same as our 1-1 classes, but her energy and passion was exactly the same as our classes.

In a world where everything is so uncertain, yoga has helped me stay sane and in touch with myself. Give yourself the chance to push your body to limits you didn’t even know you had and contact Deepa today.

I have found Deepa’s yoga classes to be truly healing. She combines yoga with knowledge by working each of the chakras. In the time I have practised with her I have learnt so much about how my mind and body are one and how I work towards unity. I’m trying as Deepa says, ‘1% a day!’ Thank you for your inspirations and guidance. Namaste.

I had been wanting to start yoga for a while now but didn't know where to begin, especially with lockdown. When I heard about Deepa, doing sessions on zoom I was intrigued but not sure it would work and how we would connect online. Boy was I wrong! Deepa's manner was kind, friendly and supportive. My first session was amazing, Deepa encourages you and explains the deeper meaning behind the poses and stretches. Her voice is calming, and I felt instantly at ease. I am so glad I took the steps to join her classes, it's had such a positive impact on me and my mindset. Thank you Deepa for the journey of Yoga.

I’d never practised yoga before until doing the 54 Surya Namaskar and the New Moon yoga with Deepa all on the same weekend! Wow! It was both energising and healing providing peace and clarity. It was just what I needed.

Deepa teaches in a gentle, therapeutic way balancing you to embrace your feelings while pushing you through the physical poses.

I love how Deepa explains the spiritual side, it’s very soothing and makes me feel really connected.

Hopefully this is the start of a long journey for me and I can’t wait to meet Deepa in person sometime soon.

In this fast pace and sometimes unsettling world we live in; practicing yoga with the talented Deepa has allowed me to bring my mind, body and soul back into balance. I have known Deepa for almost 2 years now and honestly her teaching is impeccable and has completely transformed my yoga practice for the better. Her love for yoga is definable through her teachings as she is very passionate and enthusiastic.

I have attended many yoga classes in the past but nothing can be compared to Deepa’s classes. Deepa is very calm, resilient and a knowledgeable individual. I love her positive energy and kindness that she brings to her classes. She patiently directs my awareness so that I appreciate the purpose of each asana (yoga posture) in order to have a better, stronger connection with my mind, body and soul. Her explanations are so clear and simple to follow when doing the asanas.

After my classes I feel calm, nourished, energised, I sleep better and have also regained my flexibility. Deepa’s classes keep me coming back for more and it is safe to say that my love for yoga has immensely grown. I am looking forward to attending many more classes with you as I continue to progress my yoga journey.

I have known of Deepa’s classes for a while but never had the chance to go in person but a silver lining from lockdown led me to opt for her zoom classes and I have really enjoyed them! A great teacher who guides you thoroughly and celebrates your wins is everything!

Deepa’s passion for yoga shines through and I love all the added knowledge about asanas and breath work she gives too! For me yoga is all about going inwards and Deepa’s classes are just and more because of their meditative nature. I cannot wait to attend a class in person too!

Deepa’s approach is not ‘one hat fits all.’ In every class, she emphasises the importance of going at your own pace and honoring your body. In all the other classes I attended before Yoga with Deepa, I would feel dejected that I wasn’t at the same pace as everyone else in the class. The teacher woud not go around the class and check in to see how everyone is dealing with the poses. Deepa does this which reinforces her intention to help each and every student. She marries humour with wisdom which really make the sessions fun and enjoyable. For me, it was important that the original anskrit names are used which Deepa does. It adds to the authenticity of the practice which is missing from many teachers globally.

I can’t imagine not having yoga in my life now. It is a daily practice for me and during this period of quarantine, the zoom yoga sessions are the highlight of my week. Yoga with Deepa has become my anchor, both on and off the mat. I have genuinely noticed that I am more aware of my breath and body. Before yoga with Deepa, my breath was shallow and my body was always tense. Now I know exactly what to do when I feel tension inside me. Yoga with Deepa has become my lifeline.

Yoga had always been something I did on and off. Something that I couldn't really fit into my life. Then I joined Inspire by Rupinder Kaur of AWMB and there was this ball of energy called Deepa.

I took part out of curiosity initially, not looked back since! It's not just the yoga, it's the meditation, the way Deepa explains things, it's the education. I've become more rooted and grounded, more connected to myself. The meditation each time is for me a magical experience. Each time I complete a session, I feel lifted, I smile from my heart, my soul feels more aligned to my purpose.

What is really amazing, is that it's all over a zoom call. Yet I assure you, the connection is real and pure.

Thank you Deepa, for helping in opening my heart, my mind and soul to your world.
