Journey of My
Life
YOGA DAVES BIO
My passion for all facets of yoga began in childhood. My father, an employee of Tata Steel in India, would sometimes bring our family to India for his job. I was captivated by the tales of the Mahabharata and the Bhagavad-Gita, the vibrant festivals, temples, and I turned to yoga postures for healing whenever I sustained injuries.
From 1976 to 1982, I taught yoga 5 days a week at Ohio University. I pursued studies in “The Science for Creative Intelligence” in Transcendental Meditation at Maharishi International University in Iowa and stayed in many Krishna temples throughout the years. Between 1982 and 2022, I founded “Deep Creek Yoga” in Deep Creek Lake, Maryland. From 1976 until the present, I devoted myself to studying Hanthawaddy Yoga within the Koghan Yoga system of zones under Dr. Maung Gyi, with the promise to disseminate it globally.
In 2024, I established the “Koghan Yoga Center” in Manzanillo, Costa Rica under Yoga Alliance for certification recognition. We a committed to imparting Hanthawaddy Yoga using the Koghan system of zones.
