All the Live Small Group Workshops are two-day meetings. However, they are also a specialised learning intensive, so rather than needing to choose which topic to offer, plus fixing and advertising diary dates in advance, each Workshop will be arranged once I have received a minimum of three applications from interested students.

This may sound unusual, but I feel these teachings are best reflected either within the privacy of individual meetings or the intimacy around a small group of students gathering to learn together within a common framework.

Plus this is the process that Śrī T Krishnamacharya favoured when teaching from his home to his adult students. Namely offering each student an individualised studentship through private Yoga lessons and where an appropriate addition, small study groups.

This also reflects the process I undertook with TKV Desikachar at his home in Chennai from 1979-2002 with predominantly private lessons supported by some short-term small group meetings around a single topic.

If you are interested then please do feel free to contact me. From there I can advise you on the current state of the waiting lists, advise you on when the next Workshops may be anticipated and talk over any questions you may have. For example, you may wish to put your name down for several different Modules and I can keep you updated.

Or you may prefer meanwhile to engage in one of the Online 121 eStudy Modular topics, whilst waiting to join a Live Small Group Workshop Module on another topic. This is an option that many students have found complementary and convenient within our modern lifestyle demands.

• Modular programmes offering an individualised progressive pathway
• Single topic specialisation for a study intensity and in-depth presentation
• Exclusive learning environment supporting study and attention to the student
• Traditional transmission between teacher and student to optimise absorption
• Relevance to the individual’s situation through dialogue facilitating interaction
• Studying practice and texts with a personal rather than teacher training priority

1. What are the Primary Areas for the Study of Yoga Practice Techniques and Yoga Theory?

As a student, we need to consider five fundamental practice areas to be prioritised and developed according to the teachings of Krishnamacharya. These are Āsana or general postures, Mudrā or special postures, Prāṇāyāma or seated breathing, Dhyānam or seated meditation and Chanting for learning as a meditational practice.

Each of the five links below will take you to a page where you can explore an overview of these five topics of Āsana, Mudrā, Prāṇāyāma, Dhyānam and Chanting. Each topic offers a range of in-depth Modular Workshops for your personal practice, study interest and development, or if relevant, professional skills.

2. What are the Primary Areas for the Study of Associated Yoga and Lifestyle Texts?
