Tara Mitra May 24, 2025

Show notes

Today on The Heartbreak Kids, I’m talking with someone I’ve known for a long time—Tara, a friend I met in Mysore many years ago. Back then, we were both deep in the grind, showing up every day, learning, struggling, growing. And over the years, Tara has continued to build on that foundation with an incredible depth of knowledge and experience.

She’s one of those people who lives and breathes the practice—not just the asana, but the philosophy, the discipline, the inner work. I’ve always admired the way she shows up—authentic, sharp, and fully present.

I’m excited to dig into this conversation with her. We’re going to talk about yoga, life, practice, and everything in between.

John Klarer is back on The Heartbreak Kids Podcast.

He’s a longtime student, friend, and someone who’s done the real work—on and off the mat.

A lot has changed since the last time he was on, and in this episode, we get into what that transformation has looked like.

This one’s honest, powerful, and a reminder that the practice works when you do.

Season Premiere: Kino MacGregor & Tim Feldmann on The Heartbreak Kids Podcast

The new season of The Heartbreak Kids starts with a conversation that the entire Ashtanga community needs to hear. I sat down with Kino MacGregor and Tim Feldmann, two longtime teachers, world travelers, and Certified Ashtanga teachers who have dedicated their lives to this practice.

We’re diving into everything—from the discipline and devotion it takes to stick with this method to the changes and challenges the community is facing today. We’ll talk about Sharath Jois’ passing, the impact of his legacy, and the controversy surrounding the newly certified teachers. What does it mean for the future of Ashtanga? Where do we go from here? And how do we honor the tradition while moving forward in a way that serves everyone?

This is a conversation about more than just yoga—it’s about community, leadership, and the responsibility we all have as practitioners. Don’t miss this one.
