Arthur Kilmurray is one of the leading yoga instructors in the United States . He is currently studying Advaita Vedanta under the guidance of Swami Dayananda, the Non-Dual teachings of Eckhart Tolle, and Dzogchen, and integrating these enquiries into his yoga classes. His asana (yoga postures) instruction is informed by over 29 years of study in the system devised by Yogacharya B.K.S. Iyengar and his annual studies with his primary teacher, Ramanand Patel. Mukesh Desai, master artist and teacher of classical Indian vocal music and Ramanand's partner in "Yoga and Sound" has for 14 years provided Arthur an in depth immersion in the nature of sound and breath. The influence of movement pioneers Emilie Conrad, Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen and Caryn McHose have greatly broadened his perspective on the classical poses and the relationship between form and flow in them. Thomas Berry, Brian Swimme and Ken Wilber provide a cosmic perspective for understanding the historical moment and the unfolding of human consciousness. Arthur sees the yoga poses as vehicles to embody the spiritual connectedness of our own physical existence with Mother Earth and the Living Kosmos and as an entry point into the Great Awakening. Arthur is co-founder and co-director of Mystic River Yoga.
