Dr. Srinatha's Journey in the Media
Over three decades of practice have led to this moment. Explore my recent feature in the Times of India for International Yoga Day and the philosophy that guides my work in Mysore.
I am thrilled to share this feature from the Times of India, where I discuss the power of yoga. This recognition is a testament to a lifelong journey of practice and teaching.
About this collection
This press feature looks back at three decades of practice, but it really highlights the philosophy that drives my shala today. It covers how I approach modern wellness using traditional Hatha and Iyengar methods, demonstrating that yoga is not about the perfect posture, but about the patience and discipline you bring to the mat every single day.
Three Decades on the Mat
Being featured in the Times of India for International Yoga Day was a humbling reminder of the journey that started over thirty years ago. The media coverage focused on the core of my teaching—'Athah Yoga Anushasanam'—which translates to 'yoga begins now.'
The Philosophy of My Shala
Modern practitioners often search for the perfect pose, but my work in Gokulam focuses on the opposite. The article highlights how I integrate:
- Iyengar Alignment: Using props like wall ropes, chairs, and bricks to make the practice safe and accessible for all bodies.
- Hatha Foundations: Grounding students in the bedrock of traditional breathing and discipline.
- Dynamic Flow: Incorporating Ashtanga for those who seek heat, energy, and rhythm.
Why This Matters for Your Practice
Whether you are a beginner or looking to deepen your existing training, the media feature underscores my commitment to inclusivity. Yoga is not reserved for the flexible; it is for anyone willing to show up.
If you are looking for a yoga school in Mysore that balances traditional discipline with a playful, supportive environment, this feature provides a glimpse into the space I have created. We do not just teach asanas; we cultivate a community of dancers, artists, and students who are here to explore their own limits and strength.
