Julius was a gentle soul. He was my yoga student and then a Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher through the 90s until he left town for some time. In 1993 in Chicago, he met BKS Iyegnar who helped him in front of an audience stand without his braces. He was inspired and in 1994 he went to the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute in Pune, India. He was in the yoga medical class where BKS Iyengar further helped him. He took my therapy intensive during the pandemic. He was an inspiration to other students. I am curious to know the circumstances of his death. He lives on in the memories of those he was close to.
