Toronto Yoga Leaders: Ante Pavlovic

Ante Pavlovic discovered yoga while working with special needs adults, which forged a yogic path of both teaching and practicing yoga as a philosophy and therapy. He completed a number of teacher trainings in Toronto, and in 2003-2004 lived in Chennai, India while training in the direct lineage of Sri T. Krishnamacharya, enjoying daily practice with the great yogi's son and grandson.
