Geeta is a wonderfully relatable teacher and guide in what is a highly complicated, subtle and ancient art. Having quit a corporate career, she returned back to her roots to consider and dive further into aspects of her upbringing that she had deeply connected with when young. Geeta's book Ancient Wisdom for Modern Wellbeing is an excellent and recommended overview of Ayurveda, and how you can use it in modern times.

She is a highly sought after (and one of only a handful) of Ayurvedic therapists treating in London, UK, with a long list of clients who work with her as a lifestyle-guide in the widest sense as she incorporates Ayurveda into living in the modern world.

Stu is best known for his natural, humorous, and self-effacing interview style, interviewing the world's most loved yoga teachers whilst working as massage therapist at Purple Valley Yoga, in Goa, India. But, more than this he is an incredibly knowledgeable and engaging teacher of yoga anatomy as well as ashtanga yoga practitioner himself, making him much in demand on yoga teacher trainings around the world, including the Keen on Yoga YTT starting in October 2020. With a breath of knowledge as well as an open, nondogmatic approach, Stu is a wealth of information on how to best approach finding a way to maintain a traditionally based yoga practise, so as it still works for the particular demands of the individual.

Guy is a remarkably reflective practitioner and teacher of yoga in its widest context. He has been able to bridge the often gaping chasm of Ashtanga Yoga as taught in Mysore yoga as a particular method and reach into the territory of yoga as a deep way of looking and relating to life. A philosopher and deeply compassionate soul, his teaching carries the energy of the wish to bring out the deepest level of personal relation an individual can gain with themselves. To this end he has a practical and particular application of the practice to suit each person, his emphasis being finally always on the state of meditation that is the highest aim of Yoga. Guy teaches in New York having grown up in the UK. He has also spent many years in India and is certified to teach the Ashtanga method. He is passionate about nature, stating that it was the experience of the peace of being in nature that drew him to yoga and his focus with it.

Alessandro’s striking yoga images are now well known. But, it was never intentional, when I first met him in Mysore he had just quit his job in advertising to devote some time to studying yoga. It happened, however, he had a fantastic eye and a way to bring out the best in people, so he was soon inundated with yoga teachers wanting to work with him. However, he has never lost his humility, or neither his integrity. Over the years Alessandro has been outspoken on breaking down the divisions in showing the value in a whole range of body-centred modalities though working with top athletes across the globe. His openness and his wish for understanding and a deeper respect of the human body full-stop comes through strongly in his person as well as his work. His images of the human body are honest, compassionate and affirmative.

He is then a deeply refreshing voice amongst teachers and very much his own person, with strong beliefs and conviction, yet tempered with a softness and self-awareness that marks him out as one to really listen to, as much for his ideas, as for his down to earth, relatable manner.

From his understanding of Bhakti Yoga shown in his well-known Kirtans, to his wildly personal and vibrant take on yoga-philosophy, and finally, to his open-minded and minutely thought-our approach to yoga-asanas and the science of vinyasa, he is a wholly unique and much-loved teacher.

In this podcast we discuss a range of topics such as diet for yoga, what to do about injuries and the evolving nature of practice.

Furthermore, she is a mother and graduate of Philosophy and Religion. She is therefore, well placed to help students of yoga on their journey; one that she herself has been on for the last 25 yrs, having also taught for most of those.

She occupies a rare position with similarly unique insight on the subject of practice and teaching, combining a down to earth approach within a clear and thoughtful style of presentation.
