About PARAMAGURU SHARATH JOIS
Paramaguru Sharath Jois was born on September 29, 1971 in Mysore, India to Saraswathi Rangaswamy, daughter of ashtanga master Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. Growing up in a house full of Yoga practitioners, Sharath learned his first ásanas at age seven and experimented with postures from the primary and intermediate series until he turned fourteen. Though he spent the next three years focused on his scholastic education, earning a diploma in electronics from JSS in Mysore, Sharath knew that he would one day follow the ashtanga path blazed by his mother and legendary grandfather.
Sharath embarked on his formal Yoga study at the age of nineteen. He would wake every day at 3:30 a.m. and cross the town of Mysore to his grandfathers Lakshmipuram Yoga shala. There, he would first practice and then assist his guru, Pattabhi Jois, a routine of dedication he has followed for many years.
Today, Sharaths sincere devotion and discipline to the study and practice of Yoga compels him to rise six days a week at 1:00 a.m. to complete his practice before the first students arrive at the K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute, where he serves as Director.
Sharath is Pattabhi Joiss only student who has studied and continues to practice the complete six series of the ashtanga Yoga system. He presently resides in Mysore with his wife Shruthi, daughter Shraddha, and son Sambhav.
