#23. Yogic Anatomy and the Koshas with Chase Bossart | Understanding Yoga Therapy

Chase Bossart is a Yoga teacher and a yoga therapist, and has been studying yoga for over three decades. And for the majority of that time he has studied with Guru TKV Desikachar, son of T. Krishnamacharya — who is often referred to as the Father of Modern Yoga. Altogether, he has spent more than 4 years in Chennai, India studying a wide range of yoga and yoga therapy topics with Mr. Desikachar and the teachers at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram in the Viniyoga tradition. 

Chase spent six years at the Healing Yoga Foundation in San Francisco as Director of Education & Yoga Therapy. In 2013, he founded the Yoga Well Institute in Mill Valley, California, where he continues his mission of teaching yoga philosophy, yoga therapy and his insights on Eastern vs.Western models of health and disease.   In this episode, Chase discusses Yogic Anatomy and the approach of yoga for therapy. We especially loved his commentary on the Koshas.
