THE PHILOSOPHY
Redefining Rest for the BUSY Woman
Ananda Pearl Yoga & Wellness curates bespoke wellness experiences for those who spend their lives "doing." We bridge the gap between the relentless pace of modern achievement and the vital need for deep, restorative stillness.
Our approach is grounded in the understanding that true wellbeing is not a luxury, but a necessity for resilience. Through the pillars of sound medicine, hormonal balance, and restorative movement, we create the space for you to pause, recalibrate, and navigate life’s transitions with grace.
OUR OFFERINGS
True well-being is not a one-size-fits-all approach. From the intimacy of our 1:1 sessions to the immersive nature of our day retreats, we offer a spectrum of experiences to support your evolution. Swipe to discover your next step toward balance.
Weekly Classes
Our intentionally small studio classes offer a weekly sanctuary to pause, breathe, and reconnect. Rooted in the slow, deep release of Yin Yoga and often woven with the therapeutic resonance of Sound Healing, these sessions are designed to soothe your nervous system, melt away physical tension, and guide you into a state of deep relaxation.
SEASONAL Mini retreats
A spacious three-hour sanctuary to step out of the "doing" and deeply into the "being." Aligned with the shifting rhythms of the seasons, these mini-escapes seamlessly blend extended Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Tibetan Sound Healing. We close every session by gathering over warm herbal tea and homemade treats in a relaxed, supportive space.
MENOPAUSE MINI RETREATS
A nurturing 3-hour workshop created specifically to support women through peri-menopause and beyond. Combining a warm, confidential sharing circle with expertly tailored yoga, breathwork, and meditation, this is a safe space to rest, rebalance your hormones, and learn practical tools to manage symptoms with grace and community support.
Day RETREATS
An immersive escape from the relentless pace of everyday life. Kept intimately small with just eight guests, our full-day retreats weave together profound physical rest, mindful creativity (like guided painting or macramé), and high-quality, nourishing food. Every element is thoughtfully curated to leave you feeling clearer, calmer, and deeply replenished.
THE FOUNDER
Meet Dr. Gurpreet Solanki
For years, Gurpreet navigated the high-pressure world of law while balancing the demands of motherhood, a life defined by "doing," where self-care was always relegated to "later."
Her pivot to the mat was born not from leisure, but from necessity. Following the profound loss of both parents and the simultaneous onset of perimenopause, she discovered Yin Yoga as a lifeline for grief and a grounding force for hormonal change.
Now, she bridges the gap between professional resilience and deep rest. Holding certifications in Yin and Menopause Yoga, Dr. Gurpreet curates the sanctuary she once needed herself: a space where women can step out of the relentless juggle, lay down their burdens, and simply breathe.
COMMUNITY VOICES
Stories of Stillness
The true measure of our work isn’t just what happens on the mat, but how you feel when you step off it. From profound shifts in sleep to a renewed sense of clarity, here is how our community describes the Ananda Pearl experience.
I had an amazing 121 Yin Yoga session with Gurpreet. I was welcomed into a beautiful environment surrounded by incense and relaxing music. Gurpreet explained each pose in great detail & I was instantly relaxed. It was my first session & I really didn’t know what to expect but I felt so relaxed & managed to switch off from my busy life. It was a meditative experience & highly recommend it if you’d like to de-stress & switch off from life. Thank you Gurpreet. 💕

I have tried Yoga in the past but found classes to be quite cliquey and difficult to follow.
Gurpreet’s class was a welcome surprise. I loved the way we ‘found our edge’ in the deep restorative poses I could feel my nervous system relax.
I also loved the way we were invited to actively tune into our bodies and connect to them , by the time we had finished I was ready for 😴 sleep 💤
Gurpreet was lovely and calm she explained what we were doing and why .I also thought the warm tea at the end of class was such a nice touch.
I honestly loved the class I would highly recommend it, self care is a term used so often now but this class would be perfect for you if you are serious about yours 🩷 Thankyou for for such a lovely experience

I attended Gurpreet yin yoga at a retreat where she was at and OMG, she knows her stuff. I felt a heavy release shift from my body. Easy for me who isn't the most flexible. I felt at peace and connected within. Thank you
Kelisha
I attended a Yin Yoga session by Gurpreet, at a Self-Love Day Retreat. It was not what I was expecting at all, it was better. I found so much peace and solace during the session. I found it gave me time to breathe, think, make space for me. Expect the unexpected, in a good way! Gurpreet’s Yin Yoga will leave you feeling devine.
Highly recommend.

I was so fortunate to experience two sessions with Gupi, both yin and nidra. Gupi has a natural relaxing presence and I felt really at one during the sessions, with a great night’s sleep after the yoga nidra. I would highly recommend Gupi for restorative yoga and look forward to attending another of her workshops again soon.
Amy
I attended a retreat with Gurpreet and had a such a great experience. Gurpreet is a great host and her space invokes peace and tranquility. She had arranged the retreat day carefully with activities great combination of yoga nidra, sound bath, women’s circle and creative arts. Even the food provided was great.
Everything about the day was very thoughtfully crafted and curated with relaxation and peace in mind. I would definitely be attending more of them as and when I get a chance. Thanks Gurpreet for being a fantastic host and a great yoga teacher.

Thank you so much for the yoga class; I absolutely loved it! I hadn't done any sort of yoga before and was slightly nervous about the stretches. However, to my surprise, it was much calmer and more relaxing than I expected. This really helped me unwind, and it usually takes a lot for me to relax. Your authenticity truly shone through and made the experience even more special.
I felt a profound sense of peace and tranquility during the session, and I can't thank you enough for that. It was a wonderful escape from the stresses of daily life, and I came away feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Your guidance and support throughout the class were invaluable, and I appreciated how welcoming and understanding you were.
Count me in for the next session; I feel totally chilled now and am looking forward to more classes with you. Your dedication to creating such a positive and calming environment has made a significant impact on me. Thank you again for this amazing experience.

Having never done yoga before I was so worried that I wouldn’t be able to complete the course. However, I have absolutely loved Yin Yoga with Gurpreet. She has made me feel so relaxed right from the start and is really warm and welcoming.
I would 100% recommend this course. It has really helped me cope with my anxiety and depression.
I love how when you hold the pose you get to really focus on your body and mind, and then the relaxation after each pose feels great. Thank you so much Gurpreet!
Eloise
I really enjoy my yin yoga sessions with Gurpreet. It’s the first time I tried out Yin yoga and I highly recommend it for those who have busy lives and needing stress free time with like minded people.
I love that each pose come with different levels so it’s comfortable for everyone.
Her instructions are clear and she’s knowledgeable and very attentive, ensuring each person is getting the most out of each session.
I always come out of each session feeling super relaxed and positive. 😃

I had the pleasure of experiencing one of Gurpreet’s Yin Yoga classes for the first time, and from the moment I walked through the door, I felt immersed in a complete well-being experience. The room glowed with soft candlelight, and the intimate group of lovely women created a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
The restorative practice allowed me to deeply relax while gently working into my muscles, enhancing my flexibility and releasing tension. It was truly transformative, and I enjoyed the best night’s sleep. Gurpreet’s kindness, wisdom, and nurturing energy made the entire session feel like a healing retreat.
I highly recommend this class—it’s an experience not to be missed!
