Arvind Chittumalla, Founder and C.E.O of YogiMilan

Arvind moved to Los Angeles in 2004 from Hyderabad, India. He works as a healthcare consultant and is an active yogi. When he first started practicing yoga here in the USA, he realized that there was a wide gap between what yoga is and what was being practiced here in the west, both in terms of philosophy and practice. His vision to bridge this gap has now manifested in the form of YogiMilan.
Arvind took his first yoga lesson at the age of 9 and was introduced to Indian spiritual philosophies and Sanskrit at the same age. He spent most of my childhood and adolescent years in a boarding school that emphasized spiritual and material growth of a human being. He embraced the yogic lifestyle more seriously since the last 5 years. He makes a conscious attempt to continue this enthusiasm and also help others wherever possible.

Arvind beleives in a yoga practice that integrates all the eight limbs of yoga, as prescribed by Patanjali. He practices yoga āsanas and prānāyāma at least 3 times a week. Meditation is an integral part of his practice. He leads a weekly meditation group in Los Angeles. He also organizes kirtans every month in the West LA area.
Arvind is an ardent follower of Vedanta, the source of most eastern religious faiths. Though he acknowledges and practices all the paths of yoga, he is more inclined towards Rāja Yoga and Jnāna Yoga for his spiritual growth.
