The lake is named after the sage Prashar, who is believed to have meditated here. The area is known for its natural beauty, lush green meadows, and a three-storied pagoda-like temple dedicated to the sage Prashar, making it a tranquil retreat for those seeking spiritual and meditative experiences.

Stories Of Transformation

If it were the old times i would say found my guru. Joining Sonika mam’s class made it evidential that a good teacher is a must to learn any form of art. She has opened the doors of unlimited possibilities of my mental and physical well being. Experiences like chi travelling inside and channeling it to heal, able to do movements that were painful because of shoulder pain a year ago. I feel so peaceful, grateful and calm in my everyday life irrespective of the surroundings.

- Nagma Salaria

A cool friendly relaxed dedicated instructor who walks the talk, lives her teachings which are so important in today's run-of-the-mill, commercial environment.

- Renuka

I have been learning qigong for 9 months now . Qi gong has helped me deal with side effects of strong cancer medications . I would highly recommend qigong for every cancer patient and Sonika is the best instructor for that .She gives from her heart .I have been lucky to have found her during the toughest phase of my life.

- Manisha Agarwal

I have been doing Qigong beginner level course with Sonika Ma'am for last 6 months through the recorded sessions. When I started, I had severe upper back and perimenopausal issues.  And the ONLY reason I want to do another course with her is because I'm better and I know that I can count on her during my toughest times. Her step-by-step instructions and most importantly, always being there for continuous guidance is a great mental and emotional support for me. 
You are a true Guru, Ma'am! And with folded hands, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming in my life and your continued guidance and support always.

- Mridul A

I have learning Tai Chi Qi Qong from last 6 months. It helps me to be more focused,  more centered and more grounded, more flexible not only physical but in all other areas of my life. Tai Chi made me to go beyond my own limitations of thinking and physicality. Sonika Ma'am is a wonderful teacher i have ever met  or I can say she is Itself a LIFE FORCE  who took every student with the flow of  her own life force. she is amazing 😍.
