Sumit Dalal
Yoga Teacher, Natural Builder, Co-founder of Mud Dauber
Sumit Dalal is a multidisciplinary artist based in South Goa. Together with his wife Alexandra he created Mud Dauber — a family project where art, pottery, nature, craftsmanship and everyday life come together. Yoga has been an important part of his life for many years: he practises regularly and has completed a course at Kaivalyadhama Yoga Institute. At the pottery residencies he is the yoga teacher, sharing a practice that brings movement, mindfulness and grounding into the creative experience. His particular passion is natural building — he designed and built the mud cottages where residency participants stay, working with earth, lime, reclaimed materials and traditional techniques. He is also passionate about travelling and discovering local cultures.
