Testimonial
Dr. Vinod Kumar is an example of that rare creature the polymath whose rigorous intellect is balanced by a genuine humility and desire to serve others. He brings to his vocation as a medical doctor an unusually comprehensive study of the theory and practice of yoga. He also holds a degree in Ayurvedic medicine. His experience of various forms of yoga and their therapeutic application informs a perspective which integrates both allopathic and complementary medicine with yoga therapy. Dr Kumar is extremely knowledgeable regarding Indo-yogic philosophy and cosmology. His new centre will attract many people who wish to benefit from the Kundalini and Hatha yoga and meditation classes, the yoga therapy and the integrated medicine of east and west that Dr Kumar practises. Scotland is indeed fortunate to host such expertise!
