WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING
“I’ve been practicing yoga for 25 years and found Josh’s class about 7 years ago. I was immediately drawn to his calm and supportive direction, challenging workouts, and the sense of peace I would have afterwards. He’s taught me through various stages in my life; pregnancy and postpartum, as a caregiver and then grieving after the loss of my mother, surgeries, and just stresses from being a small business owner. He’s always been great at adapting things for me whether it be physical or emotional. Since moving away, one of the things I miss most about Cleveland is Josh’s class. I am so thrilled he’s started his online classes. It’s been wonderful reconnecting with him through yoga. His calming voice and support has been so therapeutic during this new world we are all learning to navigate; I’ve always said his class is both a workout and a much needed therapy session! The peacefulness and positive mindset I walk away with is truly life changing and makes every day I practice a good one. ”

ABOUT JOSH
I have always enjoyed yoga poses and movements however, there was a time in my life when I simply didn’t understand savasana. I can remember laying on my mat at the end of class often thinking “I just paid $15 for this class and you want me to lay here and do nothing!?”
One day, there was a change.
It was a very trying and tumultuous time in my life personally and professionally. During a yoga practice in a balancing pose (balancing half-moon), I experienced a peace and lightness in my mind that I hadn’t in years. Later in the practice, during savasana, I laid there sweaty with tears in my eyes. I realized I was tired. I was tired of constantly being on edge, anxious, and depressed, and even more tired of pretending that I was fine.
It was in that moment, deep in savasana, that I decided to become an instructor.
If I can empower even one person to experience the peace I experienced during that fateful and empowering moment, it’s all worth it. While my teaching style and where I teach has changed and evolved over time, my goal has always remained – to share my practice with as many people as possible. Wherever you may be in life, from teen to senior and all stages between, whether you come to practice in a chair or on the mat, whether you're seeking strength or healing, I want to share this practice with you. The gift of yoga changed my life and it can change yours, too.
