Meet my dear friend, Trevor Tangye, who studied one-to-one with Pattabhi Jois. You may have already seen him in the Success: 12 Stories episode which you can watch here:
This time he joins me in this conversation where we explore the impact of breath and pranayama in yoga, the evolution of Ashtanga yoga, and the changing landscape of yoga teaching.
We look at the importance of adapting practices for diverse practitioners, the financial aspects of yoga, and the future of yoga teaching in a world where the number of teachers may soon exceed the number of students. The conversation highlights the need for a balance between spiritual practice and the realities of modern life, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the integrity of yoga amidst commercialization. There are no clear-cut answers, but plenty of ideas to spark further reflection and discussion. If you’d like to share your perspective, we would love to here from you.
