A gifted orator, Tias brings metaphor and imagination to his classes. He weaves together poetic language, embodied wisdom and subtle body awareness in all his classes.
Tias synthesizes years of study in classical yoga, Sanskrit, Buddhist studies, somatic practices and anatomy in his dynamic and original style. He began studying Iyengar Yoga in 1984 and lived in Mysore, India in 1989 studying Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga with Pattabhi Jois. His teaching includes precision of alignment, anatomical detail and meditative awareness. He is the founder of SATYA, Somatic Awareness Training for Yoga, a somatic practice that complements yoga.
Tias is a long time student of the meditative arts and Buddhist studies beginning with Vipassana and continuing in Tibetan Buddhism and Zen. Tias earned a Master’s degree in Eastern Philosophy from St. John’s College in Santa Fe. Tias Little makes his home under the big skies of Santa Fe New Mexico where he co-directs Prajna Yoga with his wife Surya.
Tias is the author of five books, The Thread of Breath, Meditations on a Dewdrop, Yoga of the Subtle Body, The Practice is the Path (Shambhala Publications), and In the Space Between: The Poetry of Embodiment.
