YS 101 Trailer | An Introduction to the History and Philosophy of Yoga

Curious about the historical roots of yoga? Want to know more about the philosophical and spiritual underpinnings of physical yoga practice? Wonder how old all those yogic postures really are? And what does the Yogasūtra have to do with sun salutations and vinyāsa flow, anyways?

Join Seth Powell, PhD Candidate at Harvard University, for an exciting 18-hour online course that will provide you with an in-depth introduction to yoga’s multifaceted history and philosophy. Through video lectures, slides, PDF handouts, quizzes, and optional readings, together we will journey from yoga’s shrouded origins as an ascetic tradition in ancient India, to the emergence of postural yoga in the West and around the globe—a journey that takes us from the periphery of premodern Indian civilization to the center of modern American health and wellness.
