In 1996, at the age of 20, he took his first yoga class in New York City. Struck by the clarity, vitality and peace he felt, this ignited a lifelong passion. He immediately completed his first teacher training at the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center. Since then, he has trained with many talented teachers in the traditions of Jivamukti, Ashtanga, Anusara, and Kundalini. He utilizes all of these teachings and his years of experience in each class, to provide a space for students to explore confidently. To move in a way that is nurturing, healing & fun to every body. More importantly, he continues to practice and teach because it simply makes life more abundant, healthy & harmonious. The positive impact he’s witnessed in his students lives from the dedication to the yoga practice is an endless source of inspiration.
