Of course he is back 🧡
Petri Räisänen is an internationally respected Ashtanga Yoga teacher with decades of dedicated practice and teaching experience. He has studied closely within the traditional Ashtanga system and is known for his deep understanding of asana technique, the vinyasa system, pranayama, mantra and meditation.
Petri’s teaching is precise, thoughtful and grounded in tradition, while at the same time addressing the needs of modern practitioners. A central theme in his work is how we can move from force and strain toward a more sustainable, respectful and healthy yoga culture, both on and off the mat.
