Dissatisfied with the life options offered in his home country of Aotearoa New Zealand, Mark Whitwell first travelled to India in 1971, in the wake of the Beatles. Falling in love with Baba Muktananada in Ganeshpuri, he continued to travel in India until meeting his yoga teachers T. Krishnamacharya and his son T.K.V. Desikachar in 1973, whose scholarship allowed him to integrate the energies of the masters he had previously met. Since then, Mark Whitwell has shared Yoga around the world, helping everyday people enjoy the intimacy with life which he was lucky enough to receive from his gurus. Mark lives in the Pacific and is the author of four books and one spoken word album, 'The Pure Love Project.'
