A graduate of the Ecole Nationale de Yoga in Paris, François began teaching in 1975. A year later, he met the great yogi Sri B.K.S. Iyengar. Today a certified Iyengar instructor, François also has studied meditation with Zen Master Thich Nhat Hahn, Ayurveda with Dr. Svoboda, and anatomy with Thomas Myers. He teaches regularly throughout the US, Europe, Canada and Mexico & appears in “Back Care Basics” by Mary Schatz, MD.
