Transcendence Yoga: behind the scenes it’s just me! At a Transcendence Yoga class you’ll get me, Gary, and my expression of the powerful teachings I regularly receive from my incredible yoga teachers and mentors. The name and logo are there to reflect my intention and my values about yoga. I’m not trying to be something I’m not. I don’t pretend to be a vast organization that can offer everything to everyone. I prefer the boutique approach: personally sharing my joy of yoga and how it can help us explore who we are. I’ve always had a fascination with the mystery of life and I first experienced the profound effects of meditative body and energy work in the early 1990s. Yoga is my passion; my spiritual practice. From my first yoga class I was hooked and I soon began a regular daily practice and thirsted for more. To deepen my practice, in 2009 I started Iyengar-inspired yoga teacher training with Ruth White, which is due for completion during 2012.
