Sudhakar Dheenan, creator of Dheesan Yoga, has been teaching since the young age of 15. The youngest teacher training graduate, he was named both Yoga Bhaskara (Best Teacher) and Yoga Yogacharya (Master of Yoga) by the International Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center for his outstanding performance both as a student and teacher trainer. Sudhakar has since been passionately committed to expanding his Master's teachings to students worldwide. Based in Hong Kong, yet establishing Dheesan Yoga internationally, Sudhakar has conducted numerous workshops in Taipei, Singapore, Kobe, and Tokyo. He has also successfully launched the Vision of Yoga teacher training 200-hr accredited course with the Yoga Alliance and is appreciated as a teacher of teachers.
Recognised for his sincere devotion to yoga, Sudhakar has organised the 1st and 2nd All India Yoga Festival and Competition, been named a certified juror in over 20 national and international yoga competitions, and has successfully trained several award-winning yoga competitors - notably two students from India who were selected for the World Cup Olympics 2005 - and many champion students from Hong Kong placing at the International Yoga Festival in Pondicherry, India. Most significantly, Sudhakar successfully trained the first international participant at the International Yoga Festival Vikki Ng, to win the overall championship in 2010.
After teaching thousands of students internationally and experiencing the challenges students face in their practice, Sudhakar created Dheesan Yoga founded on the principles of traditional Hatha practices and the knowledge given to him through his masters and siddhars. Dheesan, meaning "granted with intelligence" in Sanskrit, aims to instil a safe and intelligent way of approaching asanas not only as a goal but also emphasising a methodical progressive practice of leading in, maintaining with comfort, and coming out of asanas with ease. A Dheesan practice always has an intention or theme where the attention is on awareness, introspection, overcoming fear, and experiencing inner stability. Sudhakar challenges his students to experience the true art of finding one's own rhythm in practice with his spontaneous and creatively inspired classes to prepare, hold, and release asanas with fluidity and a sense of individual grace and style.
