Ashish Arora on Teaching Yoga in the West and Honoring Yoga’s Roots
Q: What is your view on tradition versus modern practice in yoga?
Tradition is valuable but not absolute; yoga has evolved, and it's important to honor roots while allowing space for change and inclusivity, avoiding ego-driven or pedestalled authorities.
Ashish Arora on Teaching Yoga in the West and Honoring Yoga’s Roots
Q: What drew you to teacher training despite early discouragement?
Seeing a role model (a relative who started practicing later) and being inspired by a peer from California helped him pursue training; witnessing joy and possibility in others motivated him to deepen his practice and learn more.
Ashish Arora on Teaching Yoga in the West and Honoring Yoga’s Roots
Q: How many classes do you teach per week, on average?
Ashish teaches about 15–20 classes per week, driven by energy from teaching and the connection with students.
Kirby Gordon on Teaching Yoga Around the World, Hosting Retreats, and Building Confidence as a Yoga Teacher
Q: If you had a billboard, what message would you put on it?
Be the change you want to see in the world; start with yourself and the daily work you do to embody that transformation.
Kirby Gordon on Teaching Yoga Around the World, Hosting Retreats, and Building Confidence as a Yoga Teacher
Q: What makes an exceptional yoga class beyond the basics?
An exceptional class weaves a sense of community, safe self-expression, and the feeling that you're part of something bigger than yourself, with the teacher knowing students by name and genuinely connecting with their lives.
