Firooza Ali Razvi - Make life beautiful, enjoy it and be happy

Episode 3. Firooza Ali Razvi is among the most senior Iyengar Yoga teachers and based in Mumbai. She has studied with Yogacharya BKS Iyengar since 1977. Firooza was in her early twenties when she started her Yoga journey with her first Yoga teacher Father Joe Pereira. Father Joe later became a medium between Guruji and Firooza, and introduced her to BKS Iyengar. She shares how Yoga has taught her to live with honesty, how it has helped her develop a stronger personality, gain the courage to face any challenge, break out of her shell, and not care much about what the world thinks of her. Firooza is also a Master of Arts in Philosophy and she has taught philosophy to undergraduate students. How should a student of Yoga think of progress in Yoga practice? When should a Yoga student look for a new teacher? How can a student of Yoga find the balance between knowing the philosophical aspect of Yoga and doing the practice of yoga? These questions and more will be addressed in this episode with Firooza.  Firooza currently teaches at Iyengar Yogashraya in Mumbai and conducts workshops in India and globally.
