Meet the Founder
Dea Putri
Teacher. Student. Educator.
Founder of Shri Sanctuary.
Yoga has been both a path and a field of lifelong study for me. My work is rooted in the understanding that yoga is much more than physical practice. It is a philosophical system, a contemplative tradition, and a way of understanding ourselves.

My Approach
Yoga as more than a physical practice.
My teaching is grounded in the understanding that yoga is a comprehensive philosophical system rather than merely a physical discipline.
Classes and trainings emphasize:
- Historical context and textual foundations
- Critical thinking and inquiry
- Direct experience
- Practice informed by tradition
- Practical application of philosophy in everyday life
- Integration of meditation, mantra, and self-reflection
Students are encouraged not only to learn concepts but to cultivate discernment and directly experience the transformative potential of yoga.
