Aham Yoga

Hosted by Aham Yoga

A teaching-focused yoga channel for students and teachers seeking clarity beyond physical postures, hosted by a teacher with roots in India.

The brief

This is a hybrid YouTube channel that functions as a free yoga school. It combines the 'Let's Talk Yoga' podcast—featuring solo deep-dives and expert interviews for teachers—with practical, guided yoga and pranayama classes for all levels. The core focus is on education and providing a deeper, more authentic understanding of yoga than is often found in modern fitness culture.

The host's perspective as an Indian immigrant teaching in the US provides a unique bridge between traditional and modern yoga. The channel stands out by blending teacher-focused interviews, technical solo episodes on topics like pranayama, and accessible guided practices.

How Aham Yoga interviews

Arundhati begins interviews by establishing foundational definitions to ensure the audience can follow the conversation. She builds rapport by sharing personal anecdotes that relate to the topic, such as her husband's ADHD diagnosis. The discussion is structured to move from broad concepts to specific, actionable advice for her core audience of yoga teachers, and she frequently asks clarifying questions to unpack jargon and explore nuances.

The channel alternates between solo teaching episodes, guided asana or pranayama practices, and long-form interviews for the 'Let's Talk Yoga' podcast. Arundhati's solo style is direct, educational, and often references her own trainings. Podcast episodes typically begin with 'Hi everyone, welcome to another episode of the Let's Talk Yoga podcast' and end with 'Until then, enjoy your practice. Take care. Bye bye.'
