What is Ghosh yoga?

The lineage of yoga is named after Bishnu Charan Ghosh, and it developed in Kolkata, Bengal. Quoting from the Ghosh Yoga website: ”In India and Japan, Ghosh yoga has always been individual and prescriptive. Each person/student has different needs and limitations, and the yoga teacher’s job is to prescribe to each student the appropriate exercises, asanas and meditations to heal their ailments and develop their physical, mental and spiritual potential.”

What is that to do with Original Hot yoga
as we practise it?

The tradition came best known in the west with Bikram Choudhury in the 1970s, who was a student of Bishnu Charan Ghosh. The practise became centered on asana and a set sequence class. He sometimes claimed he taught the 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises as a ”prescription to cure” western lifestyle related issues.

Several of his students when becoming teachers would follow the path back to the Ghosh Yoga College of India too and you may have sometimes noticed mention of Ghosh-Bikram lineage to mark the steps the yoga has been through in the west, as essentially the asana-focused practise and set sequences were here to stay.
