I started coming to Jospeh during my time off my other practice, but this quickly changed and his classes started to be part of my daily routine. He has developed his own style of yoga that really resonated with me. He takes you through warm ups and exercises created to open the body into the more advance positions. Joseph has an incredible understanding of the human body and knows how to teach us, how to manipulate certain parts of our bodies to come into these postures. His knowledge and experience of yoga is amazing, HOWEVER, the thing that made him most stand out for me is his true passion and energy everyday in class. To watch someone smile, laugh and truly enjoy teaching and practicing is inspiring! You will leave his classes feeling more alive, invigorated and energized for life! I will be back to see him for sure!

Varkala's Hidden Gem It is said that in every place there hides a treasure only available to those who truly seek to find it. After 11 months living in Varkala and not really feeling called by any of the commercial yoga schools I met Yogacharya Ullas D Kumar by some incredible synchronisities. He offered a 21 days meditation program, no drop in, no break. He promised I would see results. As someone who struggles to trust, I was surprised to find myself signing up without a thought. Ullas is an incredibly humble advanced teacher with so much knowledge. During this deeply transformational time together I discovered so much about myself and unlearned just as much. Ullas's classes are designed to dissolve ego. So, the practice is repetitive and focused. You must be willing to surrender your ideas about how things should be and trust the immense source of ancient knowledge that he is. His classes are for those committed to diving deeper into self-knowledge and who wish to develop a consistent practice to support the expansion of consciousness. So, if you are ready to challenge yourself and to grow, you will certainly enjoy his classes. This time with Yogacharya was so immensely valuable, I shall forever cherish it.
