    David Williams has been practicing Yoga daily, without interruption, since 1971. In 1973, David began studying Ashtanga Yoga with K. Pattabhi Jois at his home in Mysore, India, and became the first non-Indian to be taught the complete Ashtanga Yoga system of asanas and pranayama directly from Jois. David introduced Ashtanga Yoga to America in 1975 when he brought Jois to California.

     David is responsible for teaching the Ashtanga Yoga system to many of today's leading teachers and practitioners, including David Swenson, Doug Swenson, Danny Paradise, Bryan Kest, and Chuck Miller.  David has lived on the island of Maui, Hawaii, since l975, and teaches daily classes.

     “In my workshop, I want to show each of you how you can do the Ashtanga Yoga series in a lifelong practice that is a totally pleasant experience. I hope you can learn from me that in your practice, if it hurts, you are doing it wrong.” — David Williams
