FOUNDER / DIRECTOR

Siripireddy Rajesh

Founder, Dharana Yoga Foundation

Siripireddy Rajesh comes from a well-educated family and discovered his passion for yoga through his mother, who served as his initial inspiration. Guided by her encouragement, he took his first steps into the world of yoga and eventually decided to transition away from the corporate world.

Prior to this, he had a successful career in commercial marketing, serving as a brand promotion head and managing his own company working with various MNCs.

What began as a casual one-month introduction to yoga completely transformed his perspective. Inspired by its profound impact, he chose to step away from his corporate ventures and social life to immerse himself in intense practice.

For six years, he travelled across India, studying deeply under profound gurus in traditional settings.

Recognizing the modern health challenges faced by society—particularly by women and children—he founded the Dharana Yoga Foundation with a mission to spread the wellness of yoga and help individuals lead healthier lives.

With 14 years of teaching experience, he spent his initial six years completely dedicated to mastering the in-depth practice and philosophy of yoga. To this day, he continues to evolve and update his knowledge daily.
