Founder

Renuka Vishnu (Renu), the founder of YDL LIFE, is a Fitness Coach, a Bharatanatyam artiste, a mom, and a finance consultant. In pursuit of getting fit, she formed a Facebook group where people shared their routines, their hardships, and has now turned into a fitness support community. She believes in the concept of building habits in the long term rather than quick fixes. It is very easy for women to be lost in the world of personal and work commitments. We take care of everyone in the family except ourselves. You need a constant reminder to make yourself a priority.

Renu has been dancing since childhood and always remained fit. However, during pregnancy days, she was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism. Post-delivery she was struggling to lose weight and get back to the pre-pregnancy weight. Dancing had taken a back seat for her due to low energy levels, zero stamina and knee issues creeping in. She enrolled with nutritionists and YDL LIFEes to see some progress in her weight loss journey. She would lose weight and again back to square one once the program stopped. This is what Renu says “I realized the need for accountability of like-minded people and that is when I created a community of women on a similar journey. Fitness has given me many things, but the most valuable gift is the people I have met along this journey”.
