You just had me in tears. I'm a graduate student now, feeling insecure after a year of my teachers putting me down. I've been teaching myself yoga in order to free my mind and let go of the insecurities, but I'm not strong enough yet to let go of what people think of me. I was in tears because I'm glad even you had a point in your life where you doubted yourself and were insecure. It means I can also gain that strength. One day I hope I am able to learn under you and thank you for what you have done for me.
Kino. I owe you an apology. For quite some time I have resented your success and your exposure. But you know what they say about resentment. It's like swallowing poison and expecting the other person to fall ill. I really like what you have said in this video. It's good to hear someone talk about the emotional benefits of yoga. Thank you again, Peace
Who in their right mind could hate you? You are such an inspiring person. This video alone can send one down a better path in life. Thanks for your empowering vision and guidance.
wow. I am not the ´following kind´, at least I never thought I was. But your videos are so inspirational, just because you are so real about where you come from spiritually. A deep and humble thank you Kino. THANK YOU.
I love this interview ... it totally resonate with me! finding your truth self is certainly the greatest and most difficult lesson from the practice!! I also love this quote : "How strong do you need to be? Strong enough to believe in your dream. However big my mission is in life, that´s how strong I need to be."
I love the practice of ashtanga it is my favorite. I was practicing regularly and unfortunately the instructors in my town left and no longer have any that teach this. Im 42 years and i feel ljke i am too old to learn all this again . Is there an age limit on this journey i heard that its the hardest most dedicated practice. Your yoga is beautifully done its amazing. I strive to be this good in a practice one day.
Ahhh Kino. I really really needed this so much right now.There are days and situations through my cancer fight that I doubt I'll ever figure out the primary series and it makes me feel like less of a teacher.Whether I do or don't; I can continue to get on my mat and work on strength every single day.These caused my first tears in a long time of feeling emotionally protectively numb. It definitely spoke to my spirit.
THIS! ... is golden. I love this guidance. Essential to growing forward in practice. I'm 66 and soooo needed this affirmation of individuality as a woman practicing yoga! Thank you a thousand times!
Just saw this show up on my RUclips video Truly beautiful individual / words resonate so v much If I never do anything else but follow the likes of Kino McGregor, Laruga Glaser and Cat de Rham interspersed w a bit of Eckhart Tolle, I am a v happy woman… Thank you so v much Truly, from the bottom of my heart and soul
You are so inspiring, I always love these videos that are similar to your living the yogis life series! Thank you for everything that you do in the world:-)
Hi just found this video, popped up on my RUclips and thank you I found it very pertinent to me and very helpful. About one year now doing yoga at home and have discovered that I can make progress with practice and it’s really good. Not sure if I will ever win the tree pose but balance is getting better. So thank again all the best..
I have been doing power yoga, hot yoga etc. for a few years, recently just found Ashtanga yoga. I'm so impressed by the power and strength of Ashtanga. my goal now is to do full primary led and be sronger.
You just finished describing me. To this day I'm just learning to let go of other's opinions of me. I used to be very self conscious but am slowly beginning to love me for me through asana and meditation.
This video and its message it so powerful. I'm still learning. Thank you! Also, "A woman question"? I can't believe someone said that to you, and yet I can..
It's a fundamental question which affects all of us capable of looking inwards and asking why we feel powerless, abnormal and all those other apparent failings and weaknesses that we believe are true and, worse still, we think the world sees in us and pronounces a universal condemnation on. I think what we all have a choice of doing is reexamining the 'propaganda' we suffered as children - and I think suffering is not too extreme a word. We're ordered/instructed/told to do and be in order to fit in with society, when society could be asking how it fits in with the individual. Of course that level of benign reflection is never going to happen when society consists of so many damaged children - actual children and those children posing as adults, but still performing to their 'elders' morés and requirements. People will criticise and deride others who don't conform to the societal pattern but I think that's about suppressing/repressing their unconscious desires to do the same - to be free to be themselves rather than to conform endlessly and without fulfillment to the end of their days. I chose yoga as a physical exercise to stave off old age - I've experienced and still am experiencing doubts about my ability, strength and aptitude and yet I think I've come to a critical point where I can question the 'stories' my elders implanted in my head about who I was and what i was capable of. Why do I feel so weak, so tired, so unenthusiastic are questions generated by doubt about the path the powerful and decisive individual within me has chosen to try. One doesn't just ditch these preconceptions overnight. Negativity has to be challenged whenever it arises - because it will hold back progress insidiously. Means being aware and questioning why. Why should we stay in our boxes? - they were never designed for freedom - a box is a device for containing. Such a lovely supportive, positive and insightful message.
It's my dream to practise Ashtanaga under your guidance. When I met you in mysore I was tounge tied. I had so many questions to ask. But when I saw you for the first time I just couldn't see beyond your eyes. It's like you .sit for a tapsaya and when you open eyes you see your God in front of you. Although you are not physically there to guise me during the practice I still feel your presence. I thank you for the vedios you uploaded. They are the source of prana to the new practosiers.
I agree she's a great inspiration BUT is she the source of prana or a model of its power to show you that you also possess the same prana and power potential?
Manish Kharat None the less she is a very accomplished, dedicated, focused and helpful (to me) human being open to learning and letting go. You have the same potential. It's up to you. I hope you can see that potential in yourself.
Because someone goes to practice with a injury or physical issue, does not mean that they are NOT strong. They had the strength to show up and do the best they could on that particular day. No need to yell at anyone in front of others "Do it again"I gave all I got for my condition on that day. I have practiced Ashtanga with Pattabhi Jois himself and never felt humiliated.
love u from the first video I have seen 2 days back. Now this 1 is so empowering n directly imparting a deep strength emotionally n psychologically. you are awesome. Wen you coming to goa ?
What a wonderful talk! We have featured this video on YogaBasics.com at: www.yogabasics.com/connect/inspiration/video-audio/kino-macgregor-inspires-yogis-to-be-stronger/ Namaste!
Wow her ashtanga teachers sound rather abusive i must say. One can get stronger without having someone shouting at them but rather by having supportive and kind environment, instead of a cruel one.
This reminds (re-🧠’s) me of Kari Michalek telling (🗣-ing me to be quiet (🤫🤐) only during memories (📝-ries), moments, times, and days while and when I was being quiet (🤫🤐), no matter what. And that all resulted from Kari Michalek’s stern and strict actions. Which felt potentially unkind and mean for special needs people whom are only like me only for real (😳) in my own personal opinion.

Kino, i love you. you words made me cry:) thank you for being honest, you are beautiful inside out and you are a true yogini. Namaste xx
Such a beautiful speech. Something to listen to every morning to remind yourself about being able to break all those boxes.

This has been one of my favorite videos ever since I started Ashtanga practice in 2017. Thank you. -Christina

What courage for a young female to travel all the way to India to learn Yoga.
The way you do handstand.....gurujis would be proud.....you have more strength than u think........
Thanks Kino - Simple and Golden tips you have provided in this video. Mental Strength is all that matters. Asanas are the steps to that.
Wow, what a personality, stunning ! The clarity of thoughts is amazing, thanks.

Maybe in your mind but 1st and foremost she's a human being.
I appreciate
