Konstantinos Tournas has been practicing Yoga since 2006 and started teaching since 2007 in Heraklion. From that time he has never stopped practicing and teaching daily. He has traveled 5 times to incredible India so far, having been trained by teachers who have dedicated their lives to yoga in all aspects. He has also been trained by Manju Jois. Among his biggest inspirations were Rolf & Marci Naujokat in May 2018 in Goa. He studied with them for 3 weeks and felt that a new path in the practice and teachings of Ashtanga Yoga had opened up for him.

In 2009 he completed a one-year training program, living at the Art of Living Ashram in Germany, in the magnificent Black Forest. There he was taught Hatha yoga, breathing and relaxation techniques by world renowned Guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. He feels lucky because the time he spent with Him was unique, celestial and incredibly constructive. His training also included Silence seminars, nutrition, Ayurveda, healing and mantra. He is an authorized Art of Living teacher to teach Sudarshan Kriya (a unique breathing practice). He was responsible for the next 2 years at the Art of Living center in Hamburg teaching daily yoga classes, meditation and breathing seminars. There he had also studied the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, Ashtavakra Gita and Bhakti Sutras by Narada, all under the guidance of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.

In 2012 he moved to Granada, Spain, continuing teaching there for a year and exploring the beauty of the town, the music and  of course the warm heart people.

In 2013 he went back to Crete and completed an educational seminar in Thai massage and Reiki and also a cycle of 7 years in group psychotherapy.

In 2015 he completed the Pranic Healing seminars (Preparatory Archatic Yogi), a simple but powerful and effective non-touch energy healing system.

In 2017 (on his 2nd trip to Bangalore, India) he was initiated into Upanayanam a primordial Indian ceremony that marks the birth into the Knowledge.

After a few months of practicing Yin Yoga he felt the healing effects of this practice and in June 2019 he completed his training in Mallorca and was certified by the Yoga Alliance to teach.

Wanting to immerse into the tradition of Sri T. Krishnamacharya, in February 2020 he traveled to Chennai, India where he was taught and authorized by Srivatsa Ramaswami, the longest-standing student of Sri T. Krishnamacharya outside of the master’s immediate family. He completed the Advanced 100hr Vinyasa Krama Yoga Teacher Training. He was truly amazed with this method, its purity, authenticity and simplicity. Srivatsa Ramaswami is a wonderful teacher and a great scholar of the Vedas. He keeps teaching exactly as Krishnamacharya (his teacher) was teaching. Vinyasa Krama became part of his daily practice. Since then he continue to study online with Srivatsa Ramaswami with numerous workshops and also he has studied the Yoga Rahasya by him.

As he wants to stay always a student, Konstantinos participated in the last month long intensive teacher training by the yoga legends Richard Freeman and Mary Taylor in Boulder, Colorado in the USA in July 2023. This training was absolutely amazing in all aspects. Their teachings have such a beautiful, profound and simple way and made him realize the esoteric and internal functions of the Ashtanga Yoga in order to practice intelligently and much more sufficient so that the ”internal intelligence” of the body and mind complex is waking up and takes care of what is happening or manifesting in this particular practice, in that present moment. Training included also a cadaver lab where he was able to see (or even touch) the muscles , tendons and internal organs of the human body. That brought him a deeper perspective and understanding of the anatomy. Additionally, he was initiated to the sitting practice meditation by the Thibetan tradition where it became part of his daily practice and teaching methodology.

In September 2024 he participated in the Yin Yoga Teacher Training Intensive Secondary Level by Sarah and Ty Powers which interweaves Yoga, Buddhism, Taoism, and Transpersonal psychology into an integrated practice to enliven the body, heart, and mind. Sarah has been teaching for 30+ years, blending both a Yin sequence of long-held floor poses to enhance the meridian and organ systems while often engaging in inquiry practice, with a mindfully-based flow yoga practice.

He lives in Crete offering daily yoga classes to Heraklion and yoga retreats in Europe and India.
