Tapas sets free form-shaping forces

Invitation to the ADVANCED-ASANA-TRAINING COURSE from 3rd to 6th April 2026 in Northern Italy

Iyengar, arguably the most well-known yoga teacher, shone throughout his life through his disciplined practice and striving. Tapas, the discipline that constitutes a kind of fire-force of the will, was a defining characteristic of his personality.

Iyengar passed away some years ago. His soul, however, has left behind extraordinarily good form-shaping forces. The discipline that he achieved, the tapas of his character, transformed after his death into form-shaping forces, that is, those etheric substances of light, which carry a sun-like character and are of great importance for the health and psychological stability of human existence.

The concept of “tapas” will run as a theme through the advanced asana training course.

Participation is widely recommended, as it not only leads to personal discipline, but beyond this, the practice generates a general capacity that benefits the health of world creation.
