S.K. Pattabhi Jois

SK Pattabhi Jois

Sri K. Pattabhi Jois began his studies in 1927 at the age of 12 under the guidance of Sri T. Krishnamacharya. He devoted himself to the daily practice of asanas, meditation, pranayama and deepening yoga by studying the ancient original texts.

In 1948 he founded the Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute in Mysore, southern India, to teach the traditional method described in ancient texts and received by his Master (Guru). SK Pattabhi Jois became famous for teaching a method, Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga: a system that relates the movement of the body to the synchronization of the breath. One of the most famous phrases of this great Master who synthesizes the foundations of Ashtanga well and that Pattabhi Jois used to say to his students during his lectures, is: “Practice, practice! 99% of yoga is practical, 1% is theory. ”
