About This Business

The Ashram is an environment where students can experience deep personal transformation, promote healing, and achieve optimal physical health so that their greatest potential can be realized. Our desire is to help people live life more fully, be more connected with one another and experience true joy.

Though the practice of yoga dates back to ancient times, we have designed this highly effective method and unique philosophy to meet the needs of people of our society in this day and age. Those needs include physical and emotional healing, stress and anxiety reduction, fitness and well-being, consciousness of one’s life purpose, connection to the whole and realization of one’s greatest potential.

Everything you encounter at The Ashram culminates from Gary’s unique life experience.  The structure of the yoga sequence is inspired by Gary's many years of yoga practice, as well as his diverse background in martial arts teaching (bringing discipline and structure to the sequence), his meditation training (giving the sequence a focus on the mind and the spirit) and his experience as a musician (instilling a sense of flow to the sequence). All of these factors influenced the choice and order of postures.
