The picture speaks for itself.
We recorded a podcast this morning and it felt so good to be connected. Interview to be released very soon on The Yoga Therapy Hour!
Desikachar's approach to yoga was highly personalized and focused on adapting the practice to meet the individual needs of each student. He believed that yoga should be tailored to suit the unique requirements and goals of every person, taking into account their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. This individualized approach became the cornerstone of his teachings and formed the basis of his therapeutic yoga approach.
In the field of yoga therapy, Desikachar's teachings have had a profound impact. He emphasized the therapeutic potential of yoga as a tool for healing and transformation, addressing various physical and mental health conditions. His approach integrated traditional yoga practices with modern therapeutic techniques, making it accessible to a wide range of individuals, including those with injuries, chronic pain, stress-related disorders, and mental health issues.
Drawing inspiration from Desikachar's teachings, our Optimal State Yoga Therapy Training Program embraces the principles of viniyoga and individualized instruction. We recognize that each person has unique needs and goals, and our program is designed to address those specific requirements. Our experienced yoga therapists work closely with clients, assessing their conditions, understanding their objectives, and tailoring a customized practice that integrates asanas, breathwork, meditation, and other therapeutic techniques.
By incorporating the teachings of TKV Desikachar, we aim to provide a holistic and personalized approach to yoga therapy, empowering individuals to enhance their overall well-being, manage health challenges, and cultivate a deeper connection with themselves.

Tell every college student you know!!! Spread the word. This is especially important in swing states.
Hope is a powerful emotion.
Thank you to all of our students for teaching us so beautifully during this 9-days together. Itโs been a deep and profound week together
