Czesław Polakowski 
Czesław has been a yoga practitioner since the age of 12. He’s spent time in India, and drew great inspiration from the teachers he encountered there – with their focus on morality, universal love, non-harming and truth. His education is in Sociology, and his doctorate studies (supervised by Professor Janusz Szopa, Poland’s leading expert on Academic Yoga) are on the potential for Hatha Yoga to help prison inmates deal with stress and aggression. Czesław runs the Yoga Art Centre in Bochnia, where he delivers training for everyone to share the benefits he has gained from his conscious work on his mind and body.
