Guruji - A Portrait of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois Through The Eyes of His Students

Sri K. Pattabhi lois (1915-2009) was a rare and remarkable soul who became legendary (luring the course of his life by virtue of great service to others. Known affectionately as Guruji, lois founded and ran a yoga school in Mysore, India, for more than sixty years. In Guruji, we follow his journey from a simple teacher of yoga in a Sanskrit college to a world-recognized authority and an inspiration to tens of thousands. We see how he trained students, many of whom have helped spread the daily practice of traditional ashtanga yoga around the world, and we discover how Jois's method of vinyasa, which he learned from the great yogi Sri T. Krishnamacharya, has deeply influenced other forms of yoga widely practiced today.
