Our Story

About Indra’s Grace

Indra’s Grace is named in honor of Sandra’s mother, Jindra, who passed away in 1999 after a three-year journey with breast cancer. Sandra removed the “J,” leaving “Indra”—a Sanskrit name for God. The word most often used to describe Jindra was “graceful,” and the studio’s name is a tribute to her strength, beauty, and spirit.

Indra’s Grace can be understood as God’s Grace, God’s Blessing, Mother’s Grace, or simply the blessing of deep love. Guided by her mother’s legacy, Sandra began a search for healing that led her to explore movement therapies, nutrition, mindfulness, meditation, spiritual practices, and the power of satsang—spiritual community. The studio is a reflection of that journey.

Indra’s Grace offers group and private yoga classes (both in-person and online), crystal bed healing, and one-on-one healing sessions.

Sandra extends deep gratitude to everyone who has played a role in her life and in the creation and growth of Indra’s Grace. She thanks:

  • Her Creator, first and always
  • Her mother, for the inspiration
  • Her teacher, Shashi Pottathil, for awakening her spiritual path
  • Her father, for the courage to open the studio
  • Her meditation teachers, Dr. John Churchill and Annette Knopp, for guiding her back to her true nature
  • And every student and member of this community—for without you, Indra’s Grace wouldn’t exist.

It is our joy and honor to serve Weatherford and the surrounding community. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for being here.

Safe Space STatement

As we increasingly become aware of the misuse of power in spiritual and yoga communities and society at large, we recognize the necessity for our practitioners and teachers to hold utmost respect for maintaining a neutral, safe and sacred space in service of our community. We recognize the dangers of power dynamics in general and of spiritual authority in particular and we feel the pain of this misconduct.

Indra’s Grace values diversity, equality, and inclusion, and fosters a safe, neutral space to facilitate self-transformation through yoga. The culture at Indra’s Grace is designed to make everyone feel welcome and free from judgement, regardless of any differences (such as body weight, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender). The culture maintains professionalism, harmony, and integrity. This neutral, non-judgmental space, not affiliated with any religious tradition or political party, fosters a welcoming place for everyone. This culture allows us to hold space as students explore their personal yoga practices and self-transform in a comfortable environment. This culture creates a safe, and nurturing environment with a supportive, inclusive community to facilitate a more empowered, creative, healthy lifestyle. It is our hope Indra’s Grace Yoga provides a nurturing and supportive path for everyone.

Our vision is for Indra’s Grace to be a safe, joyful place to experience community and to connect with people engaging in practices such as yoga, meditation, energy work, wellness and teacher trainings. We sincerely hope that our studio is nourishing and supportive to you on your path.

Karma Seva (Energy Exchange) Program

Indra’s Grace offers both a Seva and a Work/Study program in which volunteers become fully immersed at Indra’s Grace. The idea of selfless service (seva) is an important concept in yogic traditions.  We also believe in work/study to support those in economic uncertainty and give them the opportunity to take group classes within our community.

We are looking for reliable, enthusiastic and dedicated students who are interested in giving to our community.  Dependability is key. Your support role helps Indra’s Grace to be the special community it is. We are asking you to apply only if your life has space for this commitment.  We need support with the basic maintenance of the studio, since it takes a great deal of care and love to make the studio a sanctuary for people to practice in. We are proud to be one of the cleanest, most nurturing beautiful studios in north Texas. We need help with a variety of tasks, including, support welcoming and orienting new students; maintaining the organization of the studio; assisting the front desk and a variety of other tasks and forms of service. We also need support with errand running and marketing.

Our work study program offers individuals in transition an affordable opportunity to immerse themselves in yoga and re-evaluate their lives while participating in a peaceful spiritual community.  Indra’s Grace work study program provides the opportunity for you to come and contribute your gifts in service to the community.
