Ritu Nanda
Traditional Hatha Yoga Teacher & Yoga Therapist

E-RYT 500 & YACEP Certified (Yoga Alliance)

10+ Years Teaching Experience

800+ Hours Advanced Training in India
Ritu Nanda is a Traditional Hatha yoga teacher in Singapore, an ERYT-500 certified instructor, an 800-hour certified yoga therapist, and a certified sound healing practitioner.
She is also the founder of Rudrakshaa Yogashala, a Yoga Alliance–certified yoga school (RYS 200 / RYS 300), where she teaches, mentors, and trains students to become teachers.
Her work is not built on trends—but on helping you understand how to practise correctly, consistently, and with awareness.
In Practice
“Not every class is the same. This is how yoga is taught when attention matters.”
Her Story (The Journey into Traditional Hatha Yoga)
Titu’s journey into yoga did not begin as a profession – it began from a need to restore balance.
At one point, she was dealing with severe food sensitivities, including celiac-related complications, along with the effects of an imbalanced lifestyle. Like many, she explored different approaches, but nothing offered a lasting solution.
Yoga was not an instant answer – but over time, it became the only practice that brought sustainable change.
This experience fundamentally reshaped her path. She moved deeper into Traditional Hatha yoga, eventually travelling to India to train under experienced teachers and immerse herself in structured systems of practice — the kind rarely found in modern studio environments.
Over the years, she completed her 500-hour yoga teacher training, an 800-hour Yoga Therapy programme, and certifications in sound healing, allowing her to work across the physical, therapeutic, and internal dimensions of practice.
Today, through Rudrakshaa Yogashala, she has built a space rooted in traditional practice and small-group learning, a Yoga Alliance-certified yoga school in Singapore where she not only teaches students but trains and mentors future yoga teachers.
How She Works
Ritu’s teaching as a Traditional Hatha yoga teacher in Singapore is based on one clear principle: yoga is a complete system, not a routine.
Every session is structured. Every movement is connected to breath.
There is no rush to achieve poses. The focus is on understanding your body, building stability, and progressing correctly over time.
With her dual background in yoga therapy and sound healing, Ritu works not just on flexibility or physical posture — but on how the practice supports the nervous system, aids recovery, and creates long-term balance in the body and mind.
This is what separates a traditional Hatha yoga teacher from an instructor who simply leads movement: the ability to see each student as an individual and guide them accordingly.

Structured
Every session is intentional and progressive

Breath-led
Movement and breath are always connected

Therapeutic
Grounded in yoga therapy and body awareness

Small groups
Attention for every student, not a crowded class

I've seen so much progress in such a short time under his guidance and generosity. great form corrections, and he truly goes above and beyond, sometimes even sharing his dinner with us after class, i'm fed both spiritually and literally! thank you always💕Posted on Google Molly KnoxTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really enjoyed the classes and the teachers were lovely! The sun salutations class followed by breathwork was a great way to spend Sunday morning. Would definitely come back for more classes next time I’m in Singapore.Posted on Google Natalie KimTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. great yoga studio to challenge your practice, instructor is kind and knowledgeablePosted on Google Shayna RobinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I tried out the graceful shoulders and hips level 1 class. The instructor was amazing and for the first time in my life I think I actually enjoyed yoga and left feeling completely relaxed. My shoulders were tense to the point they would crack on their own. Class size is small, and I really appreciate the fact that the instructor guided us along with cues and counting for us and doing it alongside us. I didn't feel lost and when I needed guidance he was immediately over to help. The entire experience felt like a massage for my body and left me feeling so relaxed and sleepy immediately afterwards exactly what I needed on a sluggish Friday evening after work. Thank you!!!Posted on Google Taylor PorterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ive been with this studio for 7 months. Ritu is an excellent teacher that is very attentive for hands on adjustments. I also enjoy the small class sizes.
