Sivananda Hatha
Sivananda was a Holy Man living in India. He had many Indian devotees and students one of whom was Swami Vishnudevananda.
Swami Vishudevananda was given the job of promoting the physical element of yoga and in order to do that he set up teacher training courses in 1969.
It was the first teacher training for yoga teachers, and many of the early classes that people did in the seventies were Sivananda bases yoga.
