Heart of Yoga with Mark Whitwell

Multiple Sessions

Mark Whitwell spent decades studying with T. Krishnamacharya, the 'teacher of the teachers' and his son T.K.V. Desikachar. In this workshop, Mark will efficiently give you the essential principles of Yoga that Krishnamacharya brought forth from the Great Tradition. These principles should be included in the Yoga that you know and love, to make Yoga entirely your own, efficient, powerful and safe.

Yoga must be adapted to individual needs, and in this workshop, through a combination of careful dialogue and practices that teach the principles, Mark makes sure that the class is useful for you—whether you are new or returning on a regular basis. This is not a 'brand' or style of Yoga, but the principles from the Great Tradition, applied through accessible practice, where asana, pranayama, meditation and life are a seamless process. 


Mark quotes: “YOGA is the practical means to enjoy andactualise the beautiful ideals of your life, of your culture.It is very important that Yoga is independent of all culturesbut can be used by all cultures.”

Mark Whitwellhas enjoyed life-long relationship with the teaching of Professor T. Krishnamacharya “the teacher of the teachers” notably BKS Iyengar, K. Pattabhi Jois and TKV Desikachar. Having studied since 1973in the home of Krishnamacharya, Markis committed to communicating the timeless yoga principles with compassion and clarity. In 1996 Mark established The Heart of Yoga Association; a non-profit foundation that provides yoga education around the world. Mark is most interested in revealing actual yoga and how each person effectively practices.
