Murti has been practicing Hatha Yoga since 1982 when he learned to teach yoga from the founder of Urban Yoga, Billy Porter. Murti participated in a two-year teacher’s training program through the Iyengar Association and has studied recently with B.K.S. Iyengar in Estes Park, Colorado. He continues to expand his teaching techniques through personal training and studies with world renowned yoga trainers Rodney Yee and Shiva Rea.

Murti discovered the healing power of yoga through personal experience by relieving his own chronic lower back pain. This inspired him to develop techniques that allow students to heal their bodies through yoga.
