I trained in raja yoga from monastics, and continue to train in the buddhadhamma with lay people in sanghas. My tao is Multidisciplinary Yoga, an amalgamation of mind-body modalities steeped in deep meditative experience. My background is in physical theater arts, traditional rock climbing, eastern arts, western body-based psychologies, various body-work styles, and sitting meditation. My classes are for all levels, lineages and lifestyles.
I created the Multidisciplinary Yoga Teacher Training from 30+ years experience from my sadhanas, and direct it at The Center for Mindful Living in Washington DC. I am an active mentor with the Insight Meditation Community of Washington. I work with all peoples, many with unique conditions or maladies.
There is no ‘right’ way to ‘do’ yoga. More so, it is about one’s being, perception, insight and relationships. Please explore the different practices that are available. Focus on the teachings (not the teacher). Through curiosity and discernment, you will gain insight from ‘direct experience,’ and walk on your own pathway of self-realization.
