drYp exists because the wellness industry promised inclusivity and delivered something else. We built the space we couldn't find and designed every detail to prove it.

There's a version of wellness that says you have to earn your place. Work harder. Go further. Get better before you're welcome. We disagree with all of it. drYp was built around a different belief that stillness is a right, not a reward. This is the craft of care. And it's deliberate.

Our Story
Our Story
Anshita spent 20 years in corporate life (biotech, pharma, the whole machinery of it) until she hit a wall. Not failure. Burnout. The kind where you realise you're running on empty and none of it is filling you back up.
What kept pulling her back, no matter where she lived, was yoga. Not as exercise - as a way of finding herself. Her brother runs a studio in LA that captures exactly the feeling she kept searching for: stillness, groundedness, the sense that whatever you came in carrying, you can put it down for an hour.
She couldn't find that in London. So she built it. drYp Studios is the direct result of someone who knew exactly what was missing and had the conviction to go and create it.

They work with you.
Not above you.
They work with you.
Not above you.
Our guides are fully certified and trained in a philosophy of presence not performance. They won't correct you from the front of the room. They'll meet your practice where it is, and gently open the door to where it could go.

Anshita Dhawan
Studio Owner
Anshita’s practice is rooted in precision and presence. With years of experience guiding both beginners and seasoned practitioners, she creates fluid, intentional sequences that cultivate strength, grace, and inner stillness.

Grace Kelly
Yoga Teacher
My mantra when it comes to yoga is that we all already have everything we need inside of us and my yoga classes will allow you the mental space to find what you need within. I'm hear to guide you to feeling empowered and leave my classes feeling lighter - in the physical and emotional body. Let's get stronger in our bodies and a little quieter in our minds. See you on the mat.

Amelia Glydon
Studio Manager
Amelia completed her training with Hotpod Yoga, spending six months fully embedding the practice into her life and learning how to teach in a way that welcomes every body. She now works across the Hotpod franchise and independent studios in East London. With a decade in theatre directing and access work for disabled performers, Amelia brings creativity, attention, and warmth into the room. Her classes are calm but never heavy, focused yet playful — designed to help you move, breathe, and leave feeling lighter than when you arrived. She believes yoga should brighten your day. Expect steady grounding, moments of lightness,gentle humour, and to leave feeling brighter, supported, and quietly joyful. and a space where you feel supported exactly as you are.

Helen Turner
Yoga Teacher
Born and bred in Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, with a background in Musical Theatre performance, Helen brings passion, creativity and fun to her classes! Helen found yoga in her 30s, and it brought much needed balance and connection into her life. She completed her first teacher training in December 2021 with high yoga school and now has over 600 hours of trainings in Vinyasa and Yin. Helen is influenced by teachings from various lineages with a particular interest in Tantra, the divine feminine and goddess religions. Helen’s love of Somatics and Embodiment, has guided her to teach classes that empower you to listen to your body - a practise that helps you “to better feel, rather than to feel better”!

Ricki
Yoga Teacher
Yoga has always been in the background of my life, my mum practised when I was growing up. I didn’t really connect with it properly until we went on a retreat when I was 20. It was during a turbulent time in my mid-20s that yoga became something much deeper for me; it stopped being just movement and turned into a way to ground myself and reconnect. A few years later I trained as a teacher in Power Vinyasa, and since then I’ve been lucky to learn from people like Miles Mortensen, who’s had a big influence on how I teach today dynamic, flowing, energising, but always inclusive and adaptable whatever your level. Although yoga is a huge passion of mine, I genuinely love all kinds of movement, and with my love of electronic music you’ll probably notice a few of these elements sneaking into my playlists during class too.
