In yogic thought, chitta is the entire field of consciousness โ where perceptions, memories, desires, and impressions accumulate. Most suffering arises not from circumstance, but from a chitta that is restless and scattered.
Mandara is the mythic mountain at the axis of creation โ immovable, steady, the centre around which everything churns. The metaphor for a mind trained to remain present without being swept away by every wave of circumstance.
"When the mind learns to settle, life does not become easier โ it becomes clearer. And in that clarity, everything changes."โ Chittamandara
Rooted in Bangalore.

Shaped by philosophy
as much as by practice.
Shruthi is a yoga teacher, mindfulness guide, and therapeutic wellness practitioner based in Bangalore. Her approach draws from classical Indian philosophy โ Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, Vedantic thought, and the Bhagavad Gita โ and translates these frameworks into language that is accessible, embodied, and free of mystification.
"I am not interested in helping people escape their lives. I want to help them inhabit their lives more fully โ with awareness, compassion, and joy."
She works with individuals, families, and organisations โ blending yoga, breathwork, mindfulness, and therapeutic conversations into a deeply personal practice. Available in person across Bangalore and online, globally.

Begin a ConversationVoices from the
Chittamandara community
I had the desire and interest to start yoga for a few years but, wasn't sure where and how to start the journey. Online options were not appealing and local options were not many. After clear positive recommendations, decided to try Chittamandara Wellness Studio with a trial class. I found Shruthi to be knowledgable, kind, friendly, patient and thorough in her teaching. Fast forward 4 months, I feel greatful to have Shruthi as my yoga guru. She provides a well planned, customized, personalised and challenging yoga experience (with a 1000Watts smile ๐ ). Chittamamndara Wellness Studio is a boutique style yoga studio with a positive vibe. Smaller class size makes the sessions meaningful and effective with personal attention. I highly recommend yoga classes with Shruthi at Chittamandara Wellness Studio for anyone who is serious about their yoga journey at any level. .
I highly recommend Chittamandara Wellness Studio and their amazing trainer, Mrs. Shruthi Ma'am ! Her expertise in addressing cervical spondylitis and sciatica through tailored yoga poses has truly transformed my health. The atmosphere is calming, and her guidance is both gentle and effective. I underwent four one-to-one sessions after which I feel more better and flexible.
I recently took a 2 month long beginners workshop taught by Shruthi on โPranayama & Mudrasโ . The course was very well designed and structured to help us start from the basics and build up our understanding to enable us to practice independently. Appreciate all the planning and time that went into the workshop in terms of handouts, recordings, and detailed instructions shared. Shruthi is an extremely knowledgeable and effective teacher who presents the concepts step by step, so each student can understand, integrate and then uniquely practice on their own. I also love doing Hatha + Vinyasa yoga asana classes at the Chittamandara Wellness Studio and over Zoom. It is very energizing to learn from a teacher who deeply understands and is knowledgeable on the concepts and background of yoga. I enjoy the asana, breathing, mudra and meditation classes that I have taken as they have a positive impact on my day and help me balance my life.
