BNS Iyengar Interview - Bio

BNS Iyengar http://www.bnsiyengar.org talks about Yoga and Sri Krishna Macharia.

While Sri K. Pattabhi Jois focused on the propagation of the Ashtanga Vinyasa system, BNS Iyengar, also a direct disciple of Krishnamacharya, continued the Ashtanga tradition through the teachings of pranayama, mudra and meditation. Jois and Iyengar were students of Krishnamacharya's in Mysore at the same time. When Krishnamacharya left the city, he left the teachings of Ashtanga in the hands of his oldest and most experienced student, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. These teachings are now at the University of Mysore. At Jagamohan temple, a Vaishnava temple in which Krishnamacharya also taught, led by BNS Iyengar, a Vaishnava like Krishnamacharya, the tradition of teaching continues -- up until today!
