Swami Janakananda

was born in Copenhagen in 1939.
Already as a child he learned how to
use simple yoga positions, and when
he was 19, realized that he wanted
to be a yogi. This dream was not
realized right away, but in the years
that followed he began with dedication
and devotion to investigate the possibilities
of the voga itself, on body and mind.

In 1968 he met Swami Satyananda
and followed him to India.
After the initial intensive training
he decided to stay and travel
Among other things, around India
with his teacher.

On his return in the summer
1970 Swami Janakananda founded
Scandinavian Yoga and Meditation School.
