A yoga trainer, who started yoga in order to explore himself and to find his purpose, Mukesh is now inspiring others to pursue yoga as a career.

Mukesh Kumawat is a yoga instructor and the owner of Sanskar Yog Studio.

Hailing from Bhilwara, Rajasthan, Hukesh says he practices yoga and also teaches yoga to others.

Recalling his childhood, Mukesh says that, belonging to a cultured family, he had been connected to yoga since childhood. His interest in yoga increased along with his age, though he was a student of Mechanical Engineering. Seeing his interest in yoga, his brother suggested that he pursue a career in yoga. Afterwards, he earned a Diploma in yoga from Maharshi Dayanand Open University and pursued further education at the Morarji Desai National Institute of Yoga, Delhi. He says that after the pandemic struck, he started taking classes in different studios. After some time, he opened his own yoga studio.

Mukesh says he has always been curious to know about himself or the purpose of his life. Knowing that yoga has the answer to that, he decided to go deep into this field, and reading about yoga practices helped him find the answers.

Sharing his experiences, Mukesh says yoga is the medium to heal yourself with your own energy. It also builds a good immunity, which helps in preventing diseases from affecting you.

Talking about his mistakes, Mukesh says he was pursuing education in the field of mechanical engineering, which was not a field of his interest. He realized studying engineering was a mistake and later shifted to the field of yoga.

When asked about his role models, Mukesh says he considers his father and grandfather as his role models. He also takes inspiration from the book "Satyarth Prakash" by Dayananda Saraswati. Furthermore, his role models also include Swami Vivekanand and his teacher, Dr. Prashant Acharya.
