En este nuevo episodio de Mysoreando entrevistamos a Nines Blázquez, de Ashtanga Yoga Bilbao. Nines nació en Madrid y durante más de quince años ha trabajado en el sector del diseño de moda y el estilismo. En octubre del año 2007 conoció el yoga a través de la prestigiosa escuela de Sivananda y se entregó con pasión a la práctica de esta transformadora disciplina. No obstante, pronto sintió que su búsqueda no había terminado ahí y decidió explorar otros estilos. Así, además de Hatha Yoga practicó Bikram Yoga, Acro Yoga, Power Yoga y Yoga Dinámico de manos del mismísmo Godfrey Devereux. En el año 2010 completó un curso de formación como instructora de Hatha Yoga con la intención de profundizar en los fundamentos filosóficos sobre los que se asienta el yoga y de adquirir nociones de anatomía de asanas que poder aplicar en su práctica.Finalmente, en el 2009 el destino llevó sus pasos hasta la escuela Ashtanga Yoga Madrid de Borja Romero-Valdespino. Desde el primer momento tuvo la sensación de que por fin había encontrado lo que buscaba y comenzó a practicar Ashtanga Yoga a diario.A lo largo de los años Nines Blázquez ha realizado talleres con profesores sénior de Ashtanga Yoga como Peter Sanson, Graeme Northfield y Tomás Zorzo y ampliado su perspectiva en diferentes escuelas de Ashtanga Yoga en Alemania, Italia, Suiza y Portugal. José Carballa, Lucía Andrade y Luke Jordan figuran también como importantes referentes de sus últimos años.Nines ha completado varios viajes a Mysore para aprender directamente de la fuente de la tradición en el KPJAYI/SYC que dirige Sharath Jois. En total, ha estado en Mysore en los años 2013, 2014, 2016, 2018 y 2022, habiendo recibido en el año 2022 la autorización para enseñar la primera serie de Ashtanga Yoga.Además de su recorrido en yoga, a Nines siempre le han interesado el funcionamiento del cuerpo humano más allá de la mera ejecución de asanas. De ese modo, en el año 2013 completó un curso de quiromasaje y masaje deportivo, en el 2014 completó un curso de masaje ayurvédico con Naga Kumar y en el año 2015 inició estudios de osteopatía en San Sebastián y en los años 2016, 2017 y 2018 los continuó en Bilbao en la escuela ISED.Nines Blázquez es cofundadora, junto a Fernando Gorostiza, del proyecto de Ashtanga Yoga Bilbao desde el año 2015 hasta hoy.

In this interview renowned Yoga Teacher Godfrey Devereux about a recent turn his work has taken. Godfrey has dropped the language surrounding contemporary Yoga to talk instead about resilience and how it is a consequence of a certain meditative self-enquiry. I ask Godfrey to elucidate this and particularly in the context of impending ecological catastrophe. I give my own take on these matters which is more inclined to speak up for activism. Listen to the following podcast, The Yogi and the Commissar, in which I explore some of the themes that emerged and in the light of Simone de Beauvoir's existentialism. [Free. 32 minutes.]

Godfrey Devereux, author of many books including The Elements of Yoga, holds a special place in J’s mind and joins him to discuss the early seeds he planted and the hard-nosed realism he is known for. They discuss his formative years, the role he played and his regrets in “mainstreaming” yoga, gurus and rejecting hierarchies, zen and the influence of child development education, the harm created by using poses for anything other than developing sensitivity, and keeping mysticism practical.

In this episode I interview Godfrey Devereux, yoga and meditation teacher of over 45 years experience, and author of several books - including ‘Dynamic Yoga’ and ‘Yoga Unveiled’, a translation and commentary of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. In this fascinating conversation we discuss how watching his uncle, an Anglican minster, pray in tree-pose sparked an overwhelming sense of reverence, how Godfrey’s teenage attempts at learning from books produced surprising results, why meeting his Indian yoga guru heroes left him unimpressed, and how the rigorous discipline of Zen - and the insight of a particular Zen Roshi - changed Godfrey’s life forever. This interview was particularly enjoyable for me because Godfrey is the man who trained me in the practice and teaching of yoga in my mid-twenties. Topics include: - Godfrey’s first encounter with yoga - The power of reverence - Early days learning from books - Meeting an Iyengar yoga teacher - Yoga in England in the 70s - Travelling to Italy and training as a Montessori teacher - Clashes with the school management - Experimentation with vast amounts of LSD - Insights gained from psychedelics - Moving to America and working in the natural food movement - Encountering Ashtanga vinyasa yoga in Hawaii - Contacting a deep internal awareness - Testing what you’re taught; does it work, is it valid? - Are some people more suited to self enquiry? - Realising yoga wasn’t really working - Travelling to India - Disappointment when meeting the great yoga gurus - Activation of anandamayakosha, the bliss body - India’s special geology and culture - Was BKS Iyengar a sadomasochist? - Meeting the advaita teacher Ramesh Balsekar - Turning to Zen - Godfrey’s first sesshin - Sitting in full lotus - Why does it have to hurt so much?! - Becoming one with pain - Studying with Genpo Roshi - Koan study - Commenting on Genpo Roshi’s sexual scandal - A guru-chela relationship with Kali - Godfrey’s tantric encounters - Self improvement vs self enquiry - 4 most common mistakes in yoga - Effortless yoga posture practice - The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali - Godfrey’s take on the 5 Yamas - Godfrey’s experiments with pranayama - Medieval pranayama vs Patanjali’s approach - What is spiritual practice? - The issue of authority - Knowledge vs experience - Steve’s training with Godfrey - Why Godfrey has decided to stop training yoga teachers - Advice for those facing catastrophe To find our more about Godfrey, visit: www.dynamicyoga.com
