Arne Espejel

 Arne discovered Ashtanga Yoga in  2003. Five years later he travelled to Mysore, India, to practice and pay his respects to Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. Ever since, he’s gone back yearly to Mysore for further studies with his teacher R. Sharath Jois and Saraswathi Jois.
In 2023, Arne received the blessing to get Certified by. R. Sharath Jois to teach Advanced A series. 
In 2019, Arne completed Advanced A series at the Sharath Yoga Center, and has been learning Advanced B series ever since under the direct guidance of R. Sharath Jois. 
In 2010, Arne received the blessings of the Jois family and was authorized to teach both the Primary and the full Intermediate Series. 

 Being one of the select few to receive this privileges, Arne likes to teach and help his students develop and sustain a self-practice based on solid understanding regarding connections between breath and movements, and an enthusiasm for the exploration of the nature of the Mind. It is his firm belief that self-practice is a great beginning and tool to help each individual on their journey towards the knowledge of oneself.

Arne has developed and supported Mysore programs in different countries.
-South East Asia: The Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. 
-Japan: He taught for few months over two consecutive years at Mysore Tokyo. 
After Covid, he resumed his visits to Japan, expanding his teachings to other cities such as Oita, Beppu, Kanazawa, Matsumoto  and Kyoto. 

 In Europe, he teaches yearly in Switzerland. He has also taught in Spain, Portugal and Hungary and he looks forward to go back to those countries in the future. 
In 2017, he started developing the on going Mysore program in Beirut, Lebanon, where he has gone back for several months every year. He recently began teaching in Turkey, in cities like Antalya and Istanbul.

Whenever it's possible he does the same back in his home town when he visits his family in Mexico City, and he has expanded his schedule to teach in Guadalajara as well.
