Gemma Parmar

Gemma Parmar is a South Austin yoga teacher on a mission to help Austinites find peace & ease through the hustle & bustle of our city's culture. She has always had a love for learning how culture & tradition shape who we are; this is why she enjoys weaving eastern philosophies & practices to a western world of living. Curating a space for people to practice something that feels relatable, accessible, & grounding. She values healing through play & pleasure, creating community with vulnerability, & experiential learning.

She has lived in the Hill Country for 8 years and graduated from Texas State University with a B.A. in International Relations & Women’s Studies. She hoped to be a human rights lawyer, but her heart called her to work with people & their direct human experiences.

Gemma has studied multiple styles of the healing arts, including Hatha, Vinyasa, Kundalini & Tantra Yoga stemming from lineages in India, as well as Chinese energy healing like QiGong & Yin Yoga and Buddhist teachings. She combines these practices with dance, music & sound healing to create an environment for people to learn how to support their nervous system, cultivate a loving presence, & find their joy.

Every month, Austin features a local artist who helps make Austin the Live Music Capital of the World.
