The Meaning Behind Our Studio’s Name - SVASA


In a world that’s constantly rushing, buzzing, and demanding more of us every day, Svasa is a gentle pause.

It’s a space to simply breathe.

The word Svasa comes from Sanskrit, meaning breath or life force. But to me, it also means presence, peace, and the sacred act of coming home to yourself. It’s the moment you exhale deeply and let go. It’s the space between doing and being — where healing begins.

I founded Svasa as a response to the chaos around us. We’re pulled in so many directions — work, family, health, expectations — that we often forget to care for the one thing we carry through it all: ourselves.

When I was diagnosed with endometriosis, I was at one of the lowest points in my life. I was exhausted — physically, mentally, and emotionally. That season forced me to slow down and reevaluate everything. I started making space for myself in ways I never had before. I began prioritizing rest, nourishing movement, and practices that supported my nervous system, not overwhelmed it.

From that space of stillness and clarity, Svasa eventually came to life — as a studio, a sanctuary, and a philosophy.

At Svasa, we offer yoga, Pilates, meditation, and mindful movement with a simple goal: to help you reconnect with yourself. No pressure. No performance. Just presence.

Whether you’re here to stretch, to strengthen, to find calm, or to simply breathe — you’re welcome. Svasa is for everyone navigating life’s chaos and looking for a moment of peace.

So what is Svasa? It’s not just a studio. It’s a breath of calm in the middle of your busy day. It’s a place to reconnect, restore, and realign.

And most of all, it’s an invitation —to just breathe.
