Mumbai, India. He and his parents are all Iyengar

NEW: Yoga Sutras Study Class
An added dimension
Add another dimension to your yoga practice with the
study and exploration of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.
The Yoga sutras define and describe the eightfold
path of yoga that most modern systems of yoga are
based on. Although written some 2000-3000 years, the
Yoga Sutras are just as relevant for yoga philosophy
and practice today as it was when it was written.
Each class will include discussion on a number of
key sutras, and time for discussion.
Students will be asked to reflect on the meaning of
the sutras and explore how these may be relevant in
their own lives.
The Yoga Sutra Study Classes are intended to be
serious in content, yet light-hearted and fun
in presentation. They are suitable for all students
who are open to explore this fascinating text and
the possibilities it offers.
