Over 8 Modules (each Module is 50-75 minutes), we’ll explore the richness of Yoga that extends beyond the poses and breathing exercises in practice; what it means to be in a state of Yoga off the mat; and what a state of Yoga even means to begin with!
Come to understand the context of Yoga as it has been passed down from teacher to student for thousands of years.
You won’t just study Yoga – you will live it.

I will be working on myself for the rest of my life, but thanks to my in-depth study of the sūtras with Chase I have the really effective, high-end power tools in my kit to do so.
What You Will Learn
This is an in-depth introduction to the Yogasūtras. Come to understand the general flow of ideas, as well as the content for each chapter. Sanskrit is a highly contextual language; to get the most out of the Yogasūtras, it is crucial to study with an expert.
By studying the Yogasūtras, you will:
- Discover what Yoga is: a way of being
- Learn what balance is, why it’s important, what it looks like, and how to achieve it
- Understand how the practice of Yoga relates to living your life
- Learn how to practice Yoga “off the mat”
- Come to know what “Yoga in Action” is for you personally
Yoga is an experiential process – it is meant to be experienced and embodied with regular practice. Change works best if it is gradual and incremental.
We encourage our students to rewatch previous lessons, reflect on the concepts taught, and ask questions or begin discussions in our private online community for peer and teacher support.
Stop doing Yoga and start living it.

Chase Bossart
In 1991, as part of a study abroad program in Chennai, India, Chase took a semester-long course on Yoga Theory with Mr. TKV Desikachar that essentially set the direction for the rest of his life. He became a private student of Mr. Desikachar, who was his mentor and teacher for 20+ years. During that time, he spent a total of four and a half years in Chennai studying with him, his family and his senior teachers. He also had the opportunity to serve as a teacher at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram. From 2006-2012, he was the Director of Therapy and Education at the non-profit Healing Yoga Foundation in San Francisco.
