Some of Krishnamacharya's students include many of yoga’s most renowned teachers: his son T. K. V. Desikachar (b. 1938), Indra Devi (1900-2002), his brother-in-law B. K. S. Iyengar (b. 1918), K. Pattabhi Jois (1915-2009), and A. G. Mohan (b. 1945).
Jois' grandson R. Sharath Jois teamed with billionaire hedge fund investor Paul Tudor Jones' wife, Greenwich, Connecticut-based Sonia Klein Jones, to create Jois Yoga in honor of Krishna Pattabhi Jois.
