About Christian Pisano
Although Christian Pisano has been practicing Iyengar Yoga for over thirty-five years, his process has involved unlearning and deconstructing everything he has learned to uncover what is deeply dear to his heart and that does not belong to any system. He feels much more like a yoga vagabond and claims this joyful wandering that is the very heart of this exploration. His approach points to the evidence of Consciousness. We are already what we seek even if we have not yet recognized it. He favors spontaneous instruction at the heart of each asana as well as the recognition of a living pedagogy that is innate to us, but that we have often forgotten. In his youth, he spent several years in India to study with his master. This was also the opportunity to study philosophy as well as Sanskrit. His philosophical inclination leads him towards the non-dual approach of the Trika system, more commonly known as Kashmiri Shaivism. He is one of three people to have received an Advanced Senior Diploma from BKS Iyengar. He is the author of The Hero's Contemplation, The Thar Desert, and The Growl of the Bear.
