Perhaps you’ve heard Patañjali’s quintessential definition of yoga? I captures the essence of yoga.

Just a bit about me:
My name is Derik Eselius.
Personally, I was introduced to yoga on a rogue trip to India in 1991, just after highschool. My first yoga revelation….
“I had no idea that it was possible to feel so alive!”
This marked the beginning of a life long study – cultivated over decades by daily practice under masterful teachers, to whom I owe a great debt. Denver Yoga Underground is a reflection of my best understanding of how to share classical yoga in contemporary society in a way that is both equitable and sustainable.
