I received my yoga certification through Fitness Resource Association of Needham, MA in the Vini yoga methodology and am a registered yoga teacher with National Yoga Alliance.  In 2005, I completed the Baptiste In-House Teacher Training course at the Baptiste Power Yoga studio in Boston. In 2010 I completed the Jon Kabat-Zinn eight week Stress Reduction Program at the University of Massachusetts Center of Mindfulness.  In 2011 I completed Warriors at Ease training program which focuses on teaching yoga / meditation to the military as well as students suffering from post traumatic stress disorder.  I have had the pleasure of studying and training with a number of local and world-renowned teachers including Gary Kraftsow, Shiva Rae, Cyndi Lee, Baron Baptiste, Ana Forrest, Rolf Gates, Marissa Farrell, Judy Baker and Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa.

In the spring of 2009, the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) Massachusetts Chapter recognized me for my therapeutic massage work with returning veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan and I was awarded the 2009 AMTA MA Chapter Humanitarian Award. In the fall of the same year I received national recognition for my work with the servicemen and woman and was awarded the 2009 AMTA National Humanitarian Award. I was named a 2009 Metro West Daily News Person of Distinction for his volunteering at the MetroWest Veterans Outreach Center in Marlborough.

I find massage therapy to be a very natural and complimentary extension to my career as a yoga instructor and Crossfit Level 1 Trainer.
