My conversation with Rocky Ryu, a yoga teacher from Indonesia, was so inspiring as our conversation ebbed and flowed around the confluence of spiritual energies in Indonesia, and how yoga has flourished there. I hope that this conversation made you curious about the RM Method, and how yoga is a lifestyle, is essential, and a way that makes life easier.

He teaches yoga on Surabaya on the Java Island, close to Bali, in Indonesia. Rocky has Asthanga, Iyengar, and Hatha Yoga certifications. His passions beyond yoga include therapy, bodywork, anatomy, and massage. For the last decade, he has come up with his own yoga technique that he calls the “RM method.” He has also taught yoga in the USA, Japan, and India. His yoga studio is called Mallika Yoga. What to expect in the Yoga In Indonesia episode of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast Rocky Ryu and I shared a beautiful conversation about yoga in Indonesia. We started off the conversation discussing how yoga first came into his life - as he witnessed yoga taking place through windows, until he one day decided to join. Over twenty-five years ago, there wasn't a lot of yoga going on in Indonesia. Though, this was personally very hard for me to imagine! Rocky built his own yoga studio, Mallika Yoga, and has been guiding students towards health and wellness through incorporating not just yoga asana, but massage, body work, breath work and more. He has even developed the RM method, which is an act of true union, as it marries together everything Rocky has learned from various healing modalities. You’ll love hearing birdsong in the background, and Rocky’s kind laughter and gentle energy. As he says, “Only with gratitude can we be satisfied and happy in life.” For the skimmers - What’s in the yoga in Indonesia episode? Yoga is more than a job Indonesia is a spiritual land The “RM Method” How histories weave between India and Indonesia The key to yoga is to be consistent with the practice Favorite Quote From Rocky Ryu “Yoga is more than the body. With asana poses it even can heal traumatic experiences that are long stored in the body, such as fear, abuse, and broken heartedness. Generally speaking, people here that I encounter had so much fear and have anxiety stored in them, so we help them to heal their general health and well-being. So just not just physical, but it's more than that.” Connect with Rocky Ryu https://www.instagram.com/Mallikayoga Want more?
