#5 - Keen on Yoga Podcast with Mark Darby

Known simply as ‘Darby’ to his students, it is truly his crystal-clear, paired-down delivery that makes him a uniquely effective teacher. With Darby there is no room for clutter or flourishes, he delivers his knowledge in the most precise and pragmatic way making the profound depth of insight he has profoundly accessible.    Having been one of the first students of Pattabhi Jois in Mysore in the 1970’s where he lived for 4 years along with his wife Joanne (and where they also had 2 children), the wisdom he has to share reflects his early contact with the Ashtanga system amongst Western-teachers, as well as his length of years he has now practiced it.   His insights speak as a testament to what the practice can do, opening out through a deep understanding of method into a space beyond the mind.
