These are the traditional yoga teachers who acquired wisdom from legendary yogis in a quite traditional style through Guru Shishya Parampara. Thereafter they took the onus of sharing their learning contributing towards the welfare of society and country at large. One such teacher is Sri MS Vishwanath, known as Masterji who learned yoga from Sri K Pattabhi \u00a0Jois since the age of 11 years and has acquired immense knowledge from his experience and zeal to learn. \u00a0With over 50 years of training expertise, Masterji has earned great recognition for his contribution to Yoga. His dedication and interest in teaching allows him to establish a strong connect with his students. Masterji is conducting online yoga lessons to allow practitioners to connect with him irrespective of their location and other boundations. These lessons will ensure a firm grasp over the vast subjects of yoga and a broader perspective of traditional yoga. Moreover, these lessons will help budding yoga trainers to understand and acquire the skills required to become an accomplished teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>hellomyyoga took a glance into the journey of Sri M S Vishwanath (Master ji) and his new initiative of online sessions through Chat on the Mat<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>hmy :&nbsp;<\/strong>What inspired you to come up with online yoga lessons?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Masterji:\u00a0<\/strong>During my long career in teaching, I met and mentored several students from various countries and felt the limitations and constraints of students. During these years, I heard from my students that they do not have a good source to know and learn about the theory and philosophy of yoga. They expressed their inability of finding out a teacher who can help in this regard. \u00a0Moreover, after attending my classes, where the students have apart from asana classes and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/blog\/guide-to-ujjayi-pranayama\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pranayama<\/a>, talks on yoga philosophy, some of my students were persuading me to do this online teaching which can help the students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I felt that the suggestion of students is right and initiating the online course might help them.
