Yoga Journey
Yogaacharya Karunakara’s foray into yoga commenced at the age of 11, introduced to Suryanamaskar by an elder. Motivated by films and circuses, he, alongside friends, engaged in the practice of yogasanas from 1970 to 1978. During school programs, they presented yoga with the showmanship of a circus act.

In 1978, a pivotal moment occurred when the esteemed Ajith Kumar emphasised the need for yoga teachers. Answering the call, Karunakara enrolled in a yoga training class in Mangalore under Ajith Kumar’s guidance, marking the beginning of his journey as a yoga trainer.

The turning point manifested in 1984 when Ajith Kumar invited B.K.S. Iyengar to Karnataka to initiate yoga teacher training. Under Iyengar’s mentorship, Karunakara immersed himself in the practice of B.K.S. Yoga.

Yoga Inspiration
After retirement, whenever B.K.S. Iyengar visited Pune, Karunakara conscientiously continued his exploration of yoga under Iyengar’s guidance. Following a yoga session, B.K.S. Iyengar extended an invitation to observe a medical class, where he not only showcased yoga with equipment but also administered yoga therapy to patients. Witnessing the profound benefits, Karunakara embraced the practice with equipment, recognising its full potential. Consequently, he embarked on imparting yoga practice and therapy, seamlessly integrating the yoga system with equipment to enhance comfort in performing challenging asanas while maximising their benefits for the body.
