At a young age Kevin Sahaj Wood was a martial artist. He then had a spontaneous awakening experience from which an urgency to search for the truth was born.

Over a period of 8 years, he studied with K. Pattabhi jois in Mysore, India. Other significant yoga teachers that he has learned directly from were: TKV Desikachar, Mark Whitwell, Shandor Remete, Dena Kingsburg, Graham Northfield and many other dedicated yogis and healers.

Today, his main teachers are: the Tibetan Dzogchen Master Namkhai Norbu, Tibetan Bon Dzogchen with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, Vajrayana tantric buddhism with Lama Tsultrim Allione and Tulku Sang nang Rinpoche and Tibetan Yantra Yoga with Fabio Andrico.
