Ananta Sylvain Girard is the founder of ARYM — the original Ayurvedic Yoga Massage (AYM) Training Center, which grew out of Master Kusum Modak‘s own training courses in Pune, India. With over three decades of experience in the practice, Ananta was one of her main AYM teachers and the only man among her assistants, working closely with her for seven years (1996–2002): organising 28 training programmes across India and accompanying her on international travels. From there, Ananta went on to play a pivotal role in spreading the method worldwide through the ARYM Institute. Over these 30 years, he has conducted more than 420 therapist courses, certifying over 2,900 AYM practitioners. His teaching is grounded in two foundations: the original Kusum Modak method, and the Anatomy for Movement approach developed by his mentor Blandine Calais-Germain, which brings precision and depth to his understanding of body mechanics. Ananta has also worked with an impressive roster of celebrity clients.
