Kashi Azad

I am Kashi, and I bring you Persian Yoga™ (Pahlavāni) from my ancestral homeland and the heartland of the Persians. I am both proud and happy to share this ancient and unique physical conditioning art form with you.

Pahlavāni has been shrouded in mystery for many years, women were not allowed to practice it and only a select few were initiated into this secretive art. I am breaking down these barriers and for the first time opening the doors to this old world, yet sophisticated and advanced, physical art form.

The Persian Yoga story began in 2007 when I visited my native mother and father land Iran and undertook the Persian Yoga™ Teacher Training Program with the International Zurkhaneh Sports Federation (IZSF) at the National Iranian Olympic Academy and travelled the four corners of Iran learning the secrets of these magnificent arts from the Grand Masters (Morsheds) of the oldest and most respected Zurkhaneh's in Iran.

I am here to share these secrets with you.
