Kaartik is my spiritual name received in 2009 as a certified Yoga teacher by my Guru at ICYER in Pondicherry (India). Its meaning is "son of the Pleiades", related to Kartikeya the original name of the hindu god of war. I've emerged with this name as an educator of Yoga and sacred devotional dances. After studied extensively BharataNatyam classical indian dance and Yoga Therapy with my Guru Ujwal Bhole, studied Hula ancient hawaiian dance and Huna healing art at Kalani Honua educational center in Hawaii. Completed my studies of Art Therapy at SIAF Accademia di Maestria, Trieste.
