DAN STEEL
I have engaged in the practice of Yoga for more than a decade now. I learned Transcendental Meditation while attending college and thereafter discovered the asana practice. With a background in martial arts, I was drawn to the physically demanding aspect of the postures and the focus that they required. After experiencing the powerful potential in Yoga for self-discovery, self-healing, and transformation, I wished to share that with other people.
I have completed multiple teacher trainings and am currently studying Hatha Yoga under the Shadow Yoga school. In addition to my yoga studies and practice, I've training in the system of Z-Health (focusing on improving movement, balance, vision, pain rehabilitation, and athletic skill through applied neuroanatomy techniques), and practice the martial art of Oom Yung Doe.
When the practice is approached correctly, with the appropriate degree of attention, patience, and discipline, there arises the profound opportunity for growth and greater understanding of the self physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The more we come to understand ourselves, the more we can act in accordance with our true nature and move beyond our fears.
Eternal gratitude to my teachers Matt Pesendian, Richmond Dickson, Dr. Eric Cobb, Ana Forrest, Cameron Shayne, Peter Harris, Michael Goldin, Ame Wren, and Aaron Cantor.
