News! Back in Action and Giving it Away for Free

After an amazing wedding and honeymoon in Bali, Sam is back in the city and celebrating the dog days of summer with a free yoga class from 10am-11am right on his home turf in Brooklyn at the Lululemon store on Saturday, August 21st.

Welcome...


"I teach from the simple philosophy that a yoga practice should meet us where we are and help guide us toward what we desire to become. For me, a yoga practice is most powerful when it is most personal--when it becomes less about following instructions from without and more about finding physical and mental balance from within. As a teacher, I focus on sharing the knowledge and tools to create a personally transformative yoga practice by blending freedom and conscious choice into the structure of each session. It's been my experience that each of us takes a unique path to develop skillfulness in body and mind, and harness that skill in action. Whether working one-on-one or in a group, we should feel that our practice is a choice, a challenge that we can meet with skill, and because each of us is unique, that uniqueness should be reflected in the shape of our yoga practice. In that sense, my highest aim as a teacher is simply to assist people in finding the road into yoga that is right for them, and then encouraging them along the journey."
