Our Inspiration and Lineage: The essential teachings of yoga focus on the Direct Experience of the True Nature of Reality, which is called Shri Vidya, or Knowledge of the Supreme. These timeless teachings of yoga have been passed down from teacher to student since ancient Vedic times by such great masters as Vasishta Maharshi, Sage Agastya and his consort Lopamudra, Adi Shankaracharya and many other awakened souls. We have had the wonderful fortune to study and learn some of the great systems of yoga from the lineages of Shivananda, Krishnamacharya, Jois, Iyengar, and others, and the essence of the Blooming Lotus Yoga programs lies in the embodiment of the Pure Bliss of Being that is being guided by the teachings and grace of the enlightened Masters – embodiments of the One Absolute Supreme Self.

Our Teachers: Bridging the gap between the authentic and spiritually focused practice of classical yoga with the needs of the modern world, Lily Goncalves and Ramananda Mayi, the founders of the Blooming Lotus Yoga schools of Thailand and Bali, facilitate our Bali yoga teacher training programs, Ubud yoga retreats and silent meditation courses. Spending many months each year in deep retreat, Lily and Ramananda emerge out each year to share their profound insight into the authentic practice of yoga and empower students with the skillful methods necessary to share this timeless wisdom with the world. We invite you to visit our website to learn more about them.
