Swami Pragyamurti

Swami Pragyamurti has been Director of the Satyananda Yoga Centre (London) for over thirty years. Her interest in the spiritual path began in the sixties when she came into contact with the teachings of the Bihar School of Yoga and its founder, Swami Satyananda Saraswati. On Swamiji’s instructions she started teaching yoga in 1971 at her house in south London, which we now know as the Satyananda Yoga Centre.

Over the last twenty years Swami Pragyamurti's main areas of work have included the establishment and teaching of a two year Yoga Teacher Training Course, working with people living with HIV/AIDS, and teaching yoga in prison where she feels strongly about the importance and relevance of yoga and meditation to the inmates. Her warmth and wisdom demonstrate how the Indian tradition of Sannyasa can be integrated successfully with life in a busy Western city.

Master Yoga Classes

Join us in experiencing the depth and wisdom a skillful teacher like Swami Pragyamurti offers in these 2 hour intensive yoga classes. The classes will consist of asana, pranayama, yoga nidra, meditation and several other esoteric yogic gems not usually experienced in a classroom environment.  People coming to one or two classes will get a taste of the great depth of this rich yogic science. People coming to all the classes will receive the additional effect of Sadhanna as the classes gradually build on each other and deepen ones experience immensely.

 “I thought yoga was just a sequence of movements and a little lie down at the end, until I experienced the Master Yoga Classes with Swami Pragyamurti. I could not believe how many aspects of my being had been touched through what seem like such simple practices.”
- Yoga Student, on attending the classes in 2011
