Jaro Pávek /SK/

Jaro has practiced yoga throughout his entire adult life and is deeply dedicated not only to its practice but also to its continuous study. His teaching style is defined by a professional and individual approach to each student, precision, discipline, functionality, and his characteristic sense of humor.

He teaches Ashtanga Yoga in its original form, exactly as it was taught by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois (Guruji) before the “yoga invasion” of the Western world into India and before Ashtanga Yoga became blended with other yoga schools and Western teachings.

In addition to studying with Nancy Gilgoff (over 50 years of practice, including 30 years of study with Guruji), Jaro also regularly learns from Manju Pattabhi Jois, Guruji’s son, who is considered the most experienced living representative of this yoga tradition, with more than 60 years of practice.
