The Yoga Sūtras Unlocked: Samādhi Pāda
Upcoming
The Yoga Sūtras are a landmark text on yoga, and thousands of years later still hold valuable tools to help guide us in self-transformation.
Join Beau to understand the insights of Samādhi Pāda, the first section of the Yoga Sūtras, including what the state of yoga is, how our modern lifestyle keeps us from achieving it, and the practices to bridge the gap.
Expect a discussion on the text, an invigorating open-level flow, and a series of guided meditations using techniques directly from the Yoga Sūtras. We will explore meditative approaches we can apply in our practice as well as off the mat.
This workshop will enrich your practice and provide you with a deeper understanding of the path of yoga.
Stay tuned for further editions!

About me
Hi, I'm Beau.
I'm a full-time yoga teacher and I teach vinyāsa, haṭha, yin, praṇayama, and meditation (including yoga nidrā).
I've been teaching yoga since 2018, and I've been practising since 2013. I hold Yoga Alliance's highest level of certification: E-RYT 500; this means I've also taught over 2,000 hours worth of classes.
My initial draw to yoga was in helping me heal physical imbalances in my body. As I deepened my practice I started to understand how yoga is different to all other movement practices: I connected further to myself—my self—and unlocked greater wellbeing, physical and emotional.
In my physical classes, we move in unison, with our breath and a curated selection of music and silence. We start with simple movements which we layer into more complex arrangements, making the challenging accessible. For meditation, I hold an inviting, protective space to allow for greater introspection and spiritual awakening.
My training
As a teacher and practitioner, I see the study of yoga as a lifelong journey. I have special interest in the accurate understanding of yoga scripture and its historical context, as well as in experiencing the practice at a somatic level.
I completed my 500 hour training with Jason Crandell, in vinyāsa flow yoga. Jason has 20+ years of experience teaching yoga and his approach is contemporary and down-to-earth, informed by the latest developments in sports medicine and the human body, with specific emphasis on asana, sequencing, and injury managment.
I did my original 200 hour training with Ambra Vallo, in haṭha-raja yoga. Ambra has trained with renowned teachers Dharma Mittra, Ana Forrest, and Larry Shultz (among others), which gave me a broad and comprehensive understanding of yoga, with specific emphasis on praṇayama, kriya, and mantra, as well as asana.
I have additionally trained with Norman Blair in yin yoga, who has 20+ years of experience and has trained with Sarah Powers & Paul Grilley and Bernie Clark.
I have completed courses on the Yoga Sūtras with Edwin Bryant; on state-of-the-art research on the history of yoga with lectures from Mark Singleton and James Mallinson (and others) with Yogacampus; and on sanskrit and mantra yoga with Elena Jessup. This is not a comprehensive list.
