Himanshu Kumar's Inspiring Journey

Himanshu Kumar, a former footballer and merchant navy professional, has found a new calling as a yoga instructor to the stars. Despite facing injuries, depression, and career setbacks, Himanshu persevered and pursued his passion for yoga, which ultimately led him to train some of Bollywood's biggest names. His first celebrity client was none other than SonuSood, whom he approached after months of persistence. Impressed by Himanshu's expertise, SonuSood introduced him to Jacqueline Fernandez, and his client list has been growing ever since.


Himanshu's journey began in Patna, Bihar, and took him to Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu, for his schooling. He was also under 17 in Indian Football Team and and also an outstanding player of Mohan Began Club.

His football dreams were cut short due to injuries and family issues, but he didn't give up. He joined the merchant navy, only to find that it didn't bring him fulfillment. Yoga became his savior, helping him overcome depression and find a new purpose.

Determined to share the benefits of yoga with others, Himanshu completed extensive courses and gained valuable knowledge. Mumbai, the city of dreams, beckoned, and he was drawn to the glamour of Bollywood.

Today, Himanshu Kumar is a sought-after yoga instructor, celebrated for his unique approach and dedication. His inspiring story is a testament to the power of yoga and the human spirit.
