Eco-Yoga Retreats is working with People for Animals India to support their new Shelter for Street Dogs and Other Injured Animals in Mysore.
Mysore is the birthplace of the Ashtanga Yoga Tradition, started by Sri Krishnamacharya and continued by Shri K. Pattabhi Jois and others.
Why is Eco-Yoga Retreats focusing on dogs in India and in Mysore in particular?
Until recently, there was no shelter for street dogs in Mysore. Katya has often travelled to Mysore to study yoga, and she has brought 3 street dogs to New York. Terry (from Dharamsala), Benny and Boo (both from Mysore) now live happily with her in New York.
