ARTHUR PORTER

Arthur originally moved to New York City in 2008 at the age of 19 with a hope, a prayer, and 300 bucks. His quiet intelligence and intuition helped him to navigate the trials that come with living in a big city, and eventually, New York became his home.

Arthur is driven by an innate desire for exploration, which led him into a yoga studio. His passion for yoga blossomed and he joined a teacher training, initially to gain a deeper understanding of the practice. Yoga moved from being a hobby to a way of life. As a result, he dedicated over 500 hours to become a Yoga Alliance certified instructor.

When it comes to teaching a yoga class, Arthur’s philosophy is to forever remain a student. His goal is to mediate the transmission of knowledge he constantly seeks to absorb. To him, yoga is all about practice. It’s the idea that you can find something that appears impossible and go on a journey to make it possible.

Arthur believes the world is your mentor. Each day, we go out and absorb new information. Yoga is the time to reflect and process what we learned. During that time, we discover the things we may have missed and learn how to use them towards living a more fulfilled life.

We love Arthur’s quiet intelligence, graceful flows, and delightful spirit. Be prepared to move, breathe, and find stillness in your mind. And you’ll love savasana!
