A History of Yoga: Part II

  • Yoga Habit 1640 Fairmount Avenue Philadelphia, PA, 19130 United States (map)

Join us for Part II of our A History of Yoga series—a 90-minute, story-rich workshop that traces how yoga transformed from an ancient meditative discipline into the global movement we know now.

In this workshop, we’ll explore how modern yoga took shape and why so many contemporary styles trace back to T. Krishnamacharya. You’ll learn how Hatha Yoga originally emerged, what early asana practice truly looked like, and how yoga first reached the West through influential teachers like Vivekananda and Yogananda. We’ll also look at the origins of vinyasa and the major modern lineages shaped by key modern teachers. By understanding how yoga has evolved across cultures and generations, you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for the tradition behind your own practice.

This workshop is part of our 200-Hour Teacher Training and is designed for yoga teachers or anyone who is interested in expanding their yoga knowledge and skillset.

Price: $45
