Erich Schiffmann has gained international recognition for his unique approach to yoga. His teaching conveys a complete experience of yoga. His emphasis is that of "moving into stillness" in order to be "guided from within," and he uses meditation, asana, pranayama, deep relaxation and discussion to elicit this experience. Erich taught yoga at the Krishnamurti School in England for five years, has studied yoga in India, and now lives in Santa Monica, CA, where he teaches local classes, workshops, teacher trainings and retreats. He is the author of YOGA: The Spirit and Practice of Moving into Stillness.
