#7 - Keen on Yoga Podcast with Guy Donahaye

Keen on Yoga Podcast

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.
