Saraswathi Jois

 

We are very grateful and honored to welcome SARASWATHI JOIS at SantoshaYoga for her first time teaching in Cologne!

"Let everything come in it's own time. A plant and tree needs proper time to grow under right conditions, why shold we human beings be any different. To grow into Yoga means growing into life, proper conditions need to be there, but when start to feel it; you will come to know it is real."

"Let life guide you by listenting to your own heart"
- Saraswathi Jois

Studying Yoga & Sanskrit

Saraswathi was born in 1941. She is the daughter of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and mother of Sharath and Sharmila. From the age of 10-22 she practiced steadily under the guidance of her father, until taking on family responsabilities. Saraswathi was the first woman ever to be permitted admission to the Sanskrit College in Mysore where she studied the basic Sanskrit works and learnt Yoga from her father. Playfully she begun exploring various Yoga postures from an early age, but took up a consistent practice from the age of ten.

Starting a Yoga revolution

For many years she assisted her father in yoga classes. In 1975 she started her own classes at a local temple, for eleven years teaching only women. In 1986 Saraswathi started a revolution in the Mysore community by teaching men and women together in a mixed class. This was a radical change to local tradition and was criticized by many people. But she kept it up, deciding to teach Yoga in the best way she found proper and gained great respect in the Mysore community. In 2002 she once again started teaching with her father at the KPJAYI in Gokulam.
For Saraswathi, Yoga has always been the major influence of her life.
