Robert’s yoga journey began with brief dalliances in the 1980s and 1990s, but he became committed to a regular practice in 2003 when he began studying the Ashtanga Vinyasa method. Everything changed: his career, his body, his diet… in the last dozen years he completed numerous workshops and retreats in various countries with teachers from the Sivananda, Ashtanga, Iyengar, Anusara, Vijnana and Yin lineages. He fasted, sat in silence and danced to the full moon.
Nowadays, being a father, a partner, a runner (and even fooling around on the monkey bars in the park) has led Robert to move away from the strictness of certain approaches. He has realized that yoga doesn’t have to have a label, but if it allows us to focus on our breath, move our body and still our mind, then it’s something worth pursuing.
Most recently Robert completed a 240-hour enriched teacher training at the Vancouver School of Yoga, a 50-hour yin teacher training at Semperviva, a mentorship at YYOGA and a mentorship with Yoga4StiffGuys. He looks forward to seeing you on the mat!
