“Your Body is Your Loom on which to Weave Your Life”
-Rev Amma Niradhara Mari
Amma Niradhara empowers developing girls in a developing world, evolving the Feminine paradigm within it. Her Masik Chakra Shashaktikaran (Monthly Cycle empowerment)Yoga Camps cultivate self-awareness & self-acceptance. Her interest in Menarche education began with her own early experiences in Yoga as an antidote to dysmenorrhea & traumatic stress. Embarking upon her role as Amma of our Ashram, her first Satsang, titled Svaasth & Suraksha (health & safety) for Girls, addressed the practical needs to attend school after Menarche & Body Literacy. With lifelong stitching skills, Amma designed & tested sets of cloth pads specifically for rural needs. As she educates, she provides these freely since 2013. Her enlightened teachings of Striimaya Yog (Feminine Yoga) are imbued with decades of self-healing & advocacy, effectively demystifying the Arts & Sciences of Ayurveda, Yog Chikitsa, Veda-s & Nigam Tantra.
Living immersed in the inner sanctum of Indic culture forover 20 years & nearly 50 years in Yoga, Niradhara Amma has created numerous Tantra-Vedanta Courses. Most dear to her heart is Masik Chakra Yog Jnana-Vijnan, which sensitively supports culturally progressive female reproductive health & rights. With these teachings, she empowers hundreds of women & girls each year, from targeted segments in rural India such as those from lowest income & at-risk families, survivors of trafficking, domestic violence, C-PTSD & childhood trauma. She sponsors 2 young women’s college tuitions (MSW & Judicial LLD) as key role models for girl’s education.
“Amma isn’t concerned with amassing followers, she is focused on creating Leaders”
A well-seasoned Yoga Therapist, our Amma provides individualized Yog Chikitsa for Trauma, auto-immunity & more, besides Feminine wellness. To avail her expertise, she teaches online & at SwAr Ashram. Your bookings directly fund her social work, an expression of her gratitude to India for its gift of Yoga.

Since 2015, Niradhara Amma is the personal Yogacharya (Master Teacher & Consultant) for the Maharaja-s (royalty) of Madhya Bharat. Her outreach also serves the royal’s NGO for Handloom Weavers, including a Heritage Handloom Weaving School & Primary School for the Weaver’s children to optimize health & well-being through the Arts & Sciences of Yoga.

Amma Niradhara, E-RYT500 Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher, YACEP Yoga Education Provider, Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, Reiki Master, TFT/EFT / EMDR Guide, Agnihotri, Pranic Healer, Sound Therapist & Ordained Interfaith Minister with projects inclusive of at-risk youth, trafficking rescues, max security incarcerated women, domestic violence, chronic & childhood trauma survivors.

As a childhood trauma survivor herself, our Amma was first introduced to authentic Yoga from Swami Sivananda Lineage as it was offered by her school PE teacher, a female Vietnam Veteran who coped with that trauma by seeking out a Guru in India, subsequently sharing the Sivananda teachings with schoolgirls in 1973-5. As a barely 13 year old child, Niradhara immediately grasped the profound self-healing possible with Yoga to cope with her own childhood traumas.
She had two Decades of Yogic self-sadhana, gathering Yogic & Vedantic books in second-hand shops & rummages, before it became fashionable. Any qualified Teacher was rarely accessible. She connected to the Teachings via creating sacred expressive art as contemplative meditation as a full-time occupation.
In 2002, she was guided to Ananda Ashram, NY at the apex of a brain infection from Lyme Erlichiosis. There, her healing journey went from emotional to physical, experimenting with Hatha Yoga Therapies on her own before there was a label as such. The neurological healing came with formal Sanskrit study, (the Science of Vibration of Sound), Japa sadhana and the ancient technology of Yajnya. Within that vast community, she was blessed with numerous opportunities to study with Masters, in particular Shree Vasant. Shortly after arriving in India in 2007, she was urged by both Shree and Swamiji that she must not only take but also GIVE the Teachings.
“When the psyche is disturbed, work SOMATICALLY with the health of your body. When the physical form is unwell, work with the tools and teachings of breath and meditation.” – Amma Niradhara

as it is written in the Shivapurana.
When the Motherland called her hOMe, 14 years ago, Niradhara was already living Ashrama life and had given up or lost all worldly attachments. She was free. She did not hesitate to devote the rest of this life’s work to continue the work of certainly many births in India. Here, she discovered, among the great Gurus who adopted her, a timeless Mother, the River Narmada Herself, and a mighty Maharani (Queen) Ahilya who built the Fort that now encompasses SwAr Ashram on its easternmost corner. Niradhara Amma recognizes these immense Feminine Energies as personal touchstones & portals to the most primordial aspects of Adi Shakti / Prakriti and viscerally felt their imprint on her own dharmic soul at her first darshan of Maa Narmada. Our Most Divine Ishtadevi Mother Narmada is ever present to nurture us & our guests here at SwAr Ashram.

Amma has helped hundreds of girls over the years, but she has one girl who is always be her side. We can not talk about Amma without including her most devoted companion, KaliTilaK, nicknamed Tilu. Swami-ji started our love for dogs when his canine companion, Tiger came to live here. Now we have Tilu to share our affection with her special Kali eye markings. She is so full of Love & enjoyment of the students. Tilu attends Aarti & morning Yoga programs, choosing her favored lucky human for the day to meditate alongside.
It is a joy opening this location to adepts, seekers and heritage loving tourists, and we are now listed on tripadvisor.com. We form a lasting relationship of support as you become part of our Ashram family.
