“You may never have heard of him, but Tirumalai Krishnamacharya influenced or perhaps even invented your Yoga. Whether you practice the dynamic series of Pattabhi Jois, the refined alignments of B. K. S. Iyengar, the classical postures of Indra Devi or the customised Vinyasa of Desikachar, your practice stems from one source – a five foot, two inch Brahmin born more than one hundred years ago in a small south Indian village.” - Fernando Pages Ruiz
