Honoured to be teaching & sharing Yoga Dharma for over 10 years across the world!
Why I am passionate about Yoga's potential in this world:
-
Yoga represents a precious ambition for the modern world. It is my personal belief that dormant within many traditions, evidence of proto-Yoga-like practices can be found, yet Yoga was greatly cultivated & nourished on the bosom of the Indian sub-continent.
-
A universalist & non-denominational approach to learning Yoga Dharma(s) today as originally proposed by the great thinkers who brought Yoga to the modern world but remained rooted in tradition.
-
To move beyond 'styles' which can be seen as the confectionary of Yoga practice. To move beyond the hegemony of set sequences of poses, exercises, & breathwork.
-
Celebrating the yogic sciences as a bonafide pursuit within world philosophy.
-
An opportunity to cultivate beneficial human values such as, but not limited to, goodwill, compassion, collective joy, & equanimity.
-
We haven't even begun to fully research the potential health & wellbeing & spiritual benefits of Yoga & relative practices.

Mysore style is the special way that Vinyāsa-krāmaa and Aṣṭāṅga-Vinyāsa lessons were conducted during the Mysore years.
Here, guided carefully by a skilled teacher, students may develop their personalised self-practices in a group context instead of the lesson being led by the teacher as is commonplace within most studios today.
Unfortunately due to various influences Mysore style practice became dominated by one particular school that came to define the practice within rigid parameters that often excluded many body-types, self-proclaimed itself as the traditional authority, and presented an āsana-centric linear progression by and large to the neglect of the other 7 limbs of Yoga.
Nonetheless, as Yoga practitioner's are maturing in their practice there is a demand for reexamination of Mysore-style practice returning to a more inclusive and comprehensive space for profound practice & study much like the one that Krishnamacharya himself facilitated. The progenitor of many forms of postural Yoga.

Yogacharya BNS Iyengar's Primary Sequence. BNS much like Manju Jois teach in a non-linear format; his teaching is "do as much as you can! Don't force, don't compare! No perfection!"
BNS Iyengar's teaching has a unique emphasis on the mythopoetica of the Yoga practice. He teaches Asana, Pranayama, and Mudra deeply infused with a living philosophy that is realised and epitomised via devoted practice, stimulating the intellect and stirring the heart..
Srivatsa Ramaswami and his guru, T. Krishnamacharya performing Vedic Chanting.
Ramaswami studied with his teacher for over 33 years meaning he was one of the students who spent the most time with K.
Closing the maṇḍala:
Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, the father of modern yoga, innovated his system of yoga called Vinyāsa-krāma predominantly across 2 cities:
1- Mysore 1926-1948
2- Madras 1952-1989
Almost all forms of modern postural Yoga practiced today stem from this man born in a small South Indian village whether that be the classical poses of Indra Devi, BKS Iyengar's precision, Pattabhi Jois's disciplined set sequences, BNS Iyengar's mythopoetica, TKV Desikachar's Viniyoga, AG Mohan's therapeutic Yoga, Srivatsa Ramaswami's Vinyāsa-krāma, Aṣṭāṅga-Vinyāsa, Power-Vinyāsa, Vinyāsa-flow and many contemporary developments are rightful descendants of this linneage.
Each of these has something valuable and unique to offer in terms of their means and validity, for it is the heart and goal of Yoga practice that remains constant throughout therefore none should express judgement or exercise hegemony before first engaging with the most honest self reflection and consideration of what Yoga offers.
_Yogi Massage + Assisted Stretch
Have you ever gotten a massage
from a Yogi?
Yoga + massage go hand in hand.
All the physical + mental training, long periods of sitting,
and the general pains of living in Saṃsāra take their toll.
For Jared the body is an extension of the mind, thus arises a deep interest in bodywork with particular focus on the Yogis, meditators, and related practitioners.
Jared is a qualified massage therapist and studies techniques/ persepectives from the 4 corners of the globe- touch is the true universal language!
Massage, however, cannot be expressed properly in words, it must be directly experienced – exactly like meditation.
