Isha Yoga School - The Founder
The foundation of Isha yoga ashram was laid by the Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, an enlightened master who has transformed the lives of thousands of people from struggle and disappointment to ones of peace and fulfillment. Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev firmly promotes that his life is an endeavor, "To help people experience and express their divinity." A self independent child who did not fit into the practical life of the world, he started yogic practices like Pranayams and Asanas under the tutelage of Shree Raghavendra Rao popularly known as Malladihalli Swami as early as the age of 13 years.
