In 1999, Harshada created Working With Soul, a New Zealand-based training company specializing in self-knowledge workshops for medical professionals and in-depth training programs for Hatha Yoga teachers.
Harshada received his B.A. from Columbia College in Chicago before going on to post-graduate studies with depth psychologist William Hayashi.
He has received intensive classic training in therapeutic yoga, sitting meditation practice and the “wisdom traditions” of India with several top spiritual leaders in the world from India and the United States, including spending six years living and working in a traditional Indian Ashram.
In his “spare time” he loves walking through Central Park, just steps from his apartment, visiting India several times a year, swimming in the ocean, meditating and spending time with dear friends.
