Yogi Manu Rana’s learning of yoga started 4 years ago.Born and brought up in Rishikesh,he completed his studies and started his career in corporate world. One common thing he noticed between the people of Rishikesh and people of corporate world that nowhere people are happy and satisfied irrespective of their education, social and economical status. This
thing always encouraged him to think that what is true happiness, what is life’s aim, what is more important being successful or being satisfied and how.
Favourite Quote: Yoga practice is not about learning and mastering more postures, but it is all about flowing and connecting with the breath in each movement and allowing the practice to open your heart and create love for yourself and others.
