World's foremost practitioners and instructors of Ashtanga Yoga

When the body is healthy, the mind is clear, and the spirit is calm, one attains the state of yoga.

A yogi who has attained perfect concentration is like a lighted lamp in a windless place—steady and undisturbed.

The true yogi is one who has learned to surrender his ego and sees himself in all beings.

The practice of asanas and pranayama purifies the body and prepares the mind for meditation.

Yoga is the union of the individual soul with the supreme consciousness.

The breath is the bridge between the body and the mind; when we control the breath, we control both.

The mind is restless; but through steady practice, it becomes calm and still, just like the ocean becomes calm after a storm.

The yogi should practice asanas and pranayama to purify the body and mind, for only then can the consciousness rise above the senses.

He who is unaffected by happiness or sorrow, he who remains steadfast in yoga, attains the highest state.

Yoga is the path to liberation; it leads to freedom from the bondage of the mind and the ego.
