Daphne Charles
Cofounder, Lead Architect, Instructor & Facilitator
Daphne is a holistic architect practicing internationally, certified Passive House consultant, licensed Biogeometry practitioner, yoga teacher (and teacher trainer) and cofounder of Routes of Yoga. She heads the design and architecture faculties at Dharmalaya Institute for Compassionate Living in India and Earthville Institute in the US. She is also a Principal at Studio Lungta.
Growing up in both Singapore and Australia, Daphne gained an early appreciation for diversity of experience and perspective. Recognizing the universal importance of balance — in body, mind, relationship, and environments — led to Daphne’s twin professions as yoga teacher and holistic architect. Seeing that our “inner” and “outer” worlds are merely different aspects of the same whole, living system, as expressed in our ancient wisdom traditions, Daphne seeks in all her work to catalyze harmony between thought, action and manifestation.
