In this episode, I talk with Marla Apt about her journey into Iyengar Yoga. Inspired by her mother and shaped by her college studies in Buddhist philosophy, Marla found her way to the Iyengar Yoga Institute of Los Angeles and, eventually, to Pune to study directly with Guruji, Geeta, and Prashant. She shares vivid stories of those experiences—Guruji’s precise adjustments, Geeta’s compassionate guidance, and the generosity of the Iyengar family. We also discuss her work in yoga therapy research and the development of Iyengar Yoga therapeutics. It’s a rich conversation about the transformative power of this practice and the legacy we’re all connected to.
