ABOUT
RICHARD FREEMAN:
Richard
Freeman has been a student of yoga since 1968. He has spent
nearly nine years in Asia studying various traditions which
he incorporates into the Ashtanga yoga practice as taught by
his principal teacher, K. Pattabhi Jois of Mysore, India. Richard’s
background includes studying Sufism in Iran, Zen and Vipassana
Buddhist practice, Bhakti and traditional Hatha yoga in India.
Starting in 1974 he also began an in-depth study of Iyengar
yoga, which eventually led him to Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga. Richard
is an avid student of both Western and Eastern philosophy, as
well as Sanskrit. His ability to juxtapose various viewpoints,
without losing the depth and integrity of each, has helped him
develop a unique, metaphorical teaching style.
Richard
teaches public classes at the Yoga Workshop as well as spending
a good part of each year traveling as a guest instructor, teaching
at studios throughout the world. As the founder of the Yoga
Workshop, Richard sets the standard for the classes at the studio.
As part of that he offers Teacher Intensive courses and special
classes through the Yoga Workshop and also gives Studio Talks
on Indian philosophy at the studio on a regular basis. He is
the author of the forthcoming book, "The Mirror of Yoga"
(Shambhala Publications, Fall 2010).
