Our Story

A boutique Yoga and Reformer Pilates studio.

GRAIN was born from the belief that strength isn't just found in heavy lifts, but in the patience of a single breath. We emphasize guided sustainable movement that honors your body's rhythm while building a foundation that lasts a lifetime.

The Team

Founding Partners

Kruthika

Founder & Certified Yoga Instructor

Grain began with a deeply personal journey. After struggling with PCOD, Kruthika discovered that a consistent yoga practice could do more than improve flexibility—it transformed her relationship with her health. Through patience, movement, and mindfulness, she experienced firsthand how yoga could support hormonal balance, build resilience, and restore confidence. That experience inspired a simple but powerful vision: to create a space where others could discover their own path to feeling better. As the Founder of Grain and a certified Yoga Instructor, Kruthika believes wellness should be welcoming, intentional, and rooted in quality. Every aspect of the studio—from the trainers and programs to the community—is built on this foundation.

Hari

Founder & Head Trainer

If you had told Hari a few years ago that he’d swap engineering drawings for yoga mats and Pilates reformers, he probably would’ve smiled—and then done it anyway. A mechanical engineer by qualification and a movement educator by calling, Hari believes the human body is the most fascinating machine ever built. His mission is simple: help people move better, feel stronger, and enjoy healthier lives. Certified in both Yoga and Pilates, Hari brings together mindful movement, functional strength, and a deep understanding of body mechanics to create classes that are equal parts challenging, supportive, and enjoyable. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned practitioner, he meets you where you are and helps you progress.
