Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute

Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute Review

Pune is as famous for its Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute as it is for the Osho commune. From this modest and serene three-story bungalow, the nearly 90-year-old grandmaster of yoga, the venerable Yogacharya (yoga teacher) B. K. S. Iyengar still runs a series of workshops along with his son and daughter. Iyengar's type of yoga was developed to be practiced by anyone and is a way of life. His numerous disciples come from all parts of the world; the specialized courses must be booked as much as two years in advance, and aspirants must also have eight years of familiarity with Iyengar Yoga. However, the institute does offer a monthlong beginner's course that is one hour, six days a week, starting at the beginning of each month (Rs. 4,500).
