Do you ever wonder what lineage of yoga we follow here at Centered Within Yoga?

We follow the incredible teachings of the late, great, master of yoga - Sri Krishnamacharya. It is largely thanks to his efforts that the practice of yoga was revitalized in India in the 1930's and 40's and was able to be spread from there as a gift to be shared with the entire world.

As promised in this morning's class, here are some videos of Krishnamacharya at 50 years of age, as well as his disciple, BKS Inyengar, performing and promoting yoga in India in the 1930's for you all to enjoy! Just click each link to watch!
