Episode 3: A Life Remembered, A Practice Continued - Stories from Sharath's Friends & Students

In this third episode of Memories of Sharath, we continue to explore the life and legacy of Sharath Jois through the voices of those who knew him well. This episode features deeply personal reflections from long-time students, close friends, and those whose lives were shaped by his steady presence and quiet encouragement.

These stories reveal Sharath's capacity to meet each person with care - to see them, guide them, and trust them. Through humour, devotion, honesty, and sometimes heartbreak, we hear how his teachings lived far beyond the mat.

In this episode, you'll hear from:

Karen Cairns – A long-time student whose two-decade journey with Sharath was marked by quiet love, resilience, and grace.
Joseph Armstrong & Edgar Navarro – Sharing funny and intimate memories from hosting Sharath in Miami, including filming his final Mysore class.
Priya Jhawar – Offering a tender, familial view of Sharath through stories of food, mischief, and deep love.
Dominic Corigliano – Bridging past and present through memories of Sharath's early years and his growth into leadership.
Matt Corigliano – Reflecting on being seen and shaped by Sharath from childhood into adulthood.
Alexander Medin – A powerful and honest reflection on a friendship marked by both rupture and enduring gratitude.
