Follow the Yogi’s Path is a podcast for students and teachers who want to take yoga beyond poses, myths and playlists — and into real life.
Hosted by longtime yoga teacher Vikky Santana, this show bridges traditional yoga wisdom with modern living. Each episode explores foundational yogic writings and philosophy — not the trends we’ve layered on top of them — to help you practice yoga with clarity, purpose, and authenticity.
We’ll talk about how modern yoga has been reshaped, what myths we’ve unknowingly accepted, and how to strip it back to what serves your body, mind, and life today. Expect grounded conversations about the Eight Limbs, ancient texts, modern challenges, and what it really means to live yoga off the mat.
If you’re ready to trade the yoga image for real yoga practice — welcome. This is your path.
