Meet the Founder

Amogh Shinde — A Teacher Who Lives What He Teaches.

Amogh Shinde established Mindful Shapes Yoga with a single vision: to bring the depth of authentic ashram yoga into accessible, modern education. His teaching blends traditional Hatha, Ashtanga, and pranayama sciences with an understanding of modern bodies and lifestyles.

With over a decade of dedicated practice and teaching, Amogh has guided hundreds of students — from complete beginners to professional instructors — through transformative journeys both on and off the mat. What makes his journey unique is his conscious decision to return to his native town of Chiplun, Maharashtra, to build Mindful Shapes Yoga from his village roots. While many modern yoga destinations have become increasingly commercialized, Amogh envisions Chiplun as a future yoga hub of India — a space where students can experience yoga in its authentic, grounded, and traditional essence amidst nature, simplicity, and community living.

Through Mindful Shapes Yoga, he aims to revive the spirit of traditional yogic learning by creating a bridge between ancient wisdom and modern life — not from a commercial tourist center, but from the heart of rural India itself.

Why Mindful Shapes

A Different Kind of Yoga School.

We are not a gym-yoga studio. Mindful Shapes is rooted in ashram values — where yoga is lived, not just practiced. Here is what makes us stand apart.

Deep Ashram Curriculum

Our courses draw from traditional yoga shastra — not fitness trends. You learn asana, pranayama, philosophy, anatomy, and meditation as an integrated whole, the way yoga was always meant to be taught.

Direct Founder Access

You learn directly under Amogh Shinde — not a junior instructor hired to fill batches. Every student gets personal attention, mentoring, and a relationship with their teacher.

Chiplun, Pedhambee — Online & On-Campus

Based in Pedhambee, Chiplun, Maharashtra, classes are conducted in English, Marathi, Hindi, Spanish and French — making authentic yoga education accessible to local communities and international students alike.

Certified & Recognized

All teacher training programs are structured to international standards. Graduates receive credentials that are respected and recognized — so your investment in learning has real career value.

Safe Space for All Bodies

Beginner-friendly modifications, therapeutic yoga options, and inclusive community culture — Mindful Shapes welcomes every body at every stage of their journey.

Living Community & Seva

Beyond the mat — satsang circles, volunteer programs, community events, and a culture of mutual support. At Mindful Shapes, you find sangha — your yoga family.
