Teacher 
 

Derek Thorne is an exceptional and fluent teacher who has been following a deep spiritual calling since childhood. Following an incident in 1997, the profound influence of Sri Ramana Maharshi and the living practice of Atma Vichara states itself in his life. He, along with a small group of companions, developed YogaLiving to make this authentic and deep teaching accessible and available, for those who choose to seek it.

Alongside his teaching Derek maintains an ordinary family life and full time professional life. This footprint in the world is an important part of his contribution giving him particular relevance for those who are themselves living and working in the demanding world and fulfilling practical responsibilities. Joining the YogaLiving Community is available enabling this beautiful teaching and the support to pursue it to be accessible to you.
