Aditya Gir

Aditya (pronounced aa-di-tya), Founder and Director of Pranoga, is an Indian-born Yogi. Aditya is fondly called by his students as "Adi." A software business owner and a former executive with a hi-tech company, he has now turned his focus to help others live happier, healthier lives. Adi founded Pranoga in mid 2009, and has taught thousands of students since then. Taking a sincere approach to affect both body and mind, he guides his students to reflect inwards and use their own inner strength to deal with all that life has to offer.

Adi obtained his Yoga Teacher certification from the world-renowned International Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center in upstate New York, one of the many ashrams and centers worldwide. He also studied in India with the Art of Living Foundation, Yoga Vidya Pranic Healing Foundation, and the Indian Heritage Society.

Adi's mission is to help people understand how the body and mind work together, and how important it is to stay healthy. Affected in the past by work-related stress, he strives to encourage his students to live in the present moment and constantly be aware of how their bodies and minds are functioning.
