Meir Leshem

Meir Leshem has been practicing ashtanga since 1988, under the direction of Tim Miller.

Since 1993 Meir Leshem has taken all the workshops by Guruji, Pattabi Jois, in Encinitas and San Francisco until the last workshop in 2006.

He has been teaching for more than 17 years, opened SF Ashtanga Yoga in 1997, and still loves sharing his practice with his students.

I will go through the pain, but I will not suffer the fear.

I began practicing with Meir Leshem in 2005 as I was looking for a physically demanding form of exercise, but over time I began to notice more profound and subtler qualities to this practice.  After establishing a steady practice I began to teach, but I find the real teacher is the practice itself, and the person's commitment to the path of practice.
