Episode 5: Shraddha Jois on the life of her father, Sharath.

In the final episode of Memories of Sharath, we hear from someone who knew Sharath Jois more deeply than any student ever could: his daughter, Shraddha.

Speaking with quiet strength and heartfelt clarity, Shraddha reflects on growing up in the Jois household, surrounded by yoga, devotion, and community. She shares the moment she chose the path of yoga for herself, and how that choice transformed her bond with her father, from a playful, loving dad to spiritual teacher and guide.

With stories of long car rides, private lessons, family dinners, and his unmistakable sense of humour, Shraddha offers a rare and tender portrait of the man behind the lineage. It’s an intimate conversation about love, legacy, and the quiet power of presence.

As the Memories of Sharath series comes to a close, this episode offers a final glimpse, through the eyes of a daughter, into the life of a teacher who shaped a global tradition and touched countless lives, starting with his own family.
