Hi. I’m Arthur.
Its really cool to be the teacher of the month here a Sonic Yoga. Honestly, I couldnot have imagined this would have been a possibility when I first walked into Sonic Yoga about 5 years ago to do my teacher training. My motive in teacher training wasn’t to be a teacher— I just needed something to do after being laid off from a job that was completely wrong for me. Something clicked. I came into this studio every opportunity I could. I was in a different part of my life— you could say I was a bit of a party boy. Yoga gave me goals. The day I saw someone float into a handstand, I said to myself, “I really want to do that.” So, I started to practice every day. Eventually, I learned that it’s not easy to invert when you’re hungover. So, I started removing those things (not in their entirety). I shuffled parts of my life around to make space for this practice…
…and now I’m a teacher.
I’m a teacher at Sonic Yoga: the place where it all began. I’m really fortunate andhappy that this studio has given me the opportunity to hone my craft as a teacher. I’m still new. I make lots of mistakes. But I’ve taught myself that this is something I care a lot about, and because of that I CAN put in the hard work to be better.
