Welcome back to On the Light. I’m your host, Susan Johnson.

Today, it is my great honor to speak with Gloria Goldberg, a longtime student and teacher of the Iyengar method, whose decades of dedicated study and service have placed her in direct contact with Guruji, Geetaji, and the Iyengar family for many many years.

Gloria’s journey began in the early 1970s, when she was first drawn to yoga as a way to manage her asthma. What began as a simple, personal practice soon became a lifelong path—one that led her to study in Pune, assist in organizing conventions, help develop teacher education programs, and serve the Iyengar community with extraordinary devotion.

In this conversation, Gloria shares intimate memories of her time with Guruji and Geetaji, reflections on practice as an experiential and transformative process, and the profound responsibility of preserving and transmitting this work to future generations.
