June 21—isn’t merely another calendar date. For yog teachers, it’s a profoundly meaningful moment: an opportunity to revisit why they teach, what they represent, and how they can lead others with authenticity, compassion, and lucidity.
Yog Day: A Teacher’s Point of Reflection
While some concentrate on the postures or the show of mass classes, to teachers, Yoga Day is a chance to:
Take a breath and come back to personal intention
Rekindle the spark of inspiration
Bring to mind the oneness (yuj) behind each practice
Considering your position as a guide—beyond the body—assists teachers in respecting the authentic definition of yog: union with self, breath, and purpose.
The Teacher’s Training That Changed Everything
With a heart full of devotion and a vision for deeper learning, Guruji traveled to The Yoga Institute, (Mumbai)—one of the world’s oldest organized yoga centers.
There, he was trained under the legendary guidance of:
Dr. Jayadeva Yogendra, a pioneer in modern yogic education
Dr. Hansa Yogendra, a beacon of yogic wisdom and compassion
In 1994, Guruji completed his Teacher’s Training Course, emerging not only with certification—but with a life mission: to make authentic yog accessible to every home and every heart.
The Birth of a Movement
In 1996, he founded his first training institute. What started as a modest classroom grew into Online Yog Life and Yog Life Global—a network of over 100+ institutes, empowering thousands across 22+ countries.
Today, Guruji has guided over 1 million people across 56 countries, mentored countless seekers, and continues to inspire a generation of conscious trainers through his online and offline courses.
Why This Matters for You, the Yog Teacher
Guruji’s journey is a living example of what teacher training is truly about:
It’s not just about learning techniques
It’s about transformation from the inside out
It’s about overcoming suffering and becoming a light for others
It’s about carrying forward the lineage with humility and dedication
On this Yog Day, let’s not just teach another class.
Let’s remember why we teach.
