Lineage & Inspiration
Teachings From Living Traditions
Ajinkya's work is deeply informed by living lineages and teachers who embody both classical wisdom and practical application.
Bihar School of Yoga Tradition
Inspired by the teachings of Swami Sivananda Saraswati, Swami Satyananda Saraswati, and Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati — whose integrated approach emphasises harmony of head, heart, and hand (thought, feeling, and action) and the application of yoga in daily life. Ajinkya carries forward an understanding of yoga as a holistic, experiential discipline rooted in tradition, yet responsive to modern life.
Dr. Vasant Lad & The Ayurvedic Institute
Ajinkya's primary inspiration comes from Dr. Vasant Lad, founder of The Ayurvedic Institute, and the teachings transmitted through The Ayurvedic Institute and Ayurprana — emphasising constitutional assessment, digestive intelligence, lifestyle medicine, marma therapy, and the integration of body, mind, and consciousness in healing.
Yang Family Tai Chi Tradition
Rooted in the Yang Family Tai Chi tradition through study with Sifu George Thomas — a sixth-generation master and disciple of Grandmaster Fu Sheng Yuan (fifth-generation Yongnian Yang Family lineage) — emphasising internal alignment, subtle strength, and the cultivation of balance, vitality, and embodied awareness.
