JAKE BELKNAP
I found yoga in the most unlikely of places, in P90X. I began to practice in hopes of gaining flexibility and reaching my out-of-touch toes. What I didn't expect to find was the calm which came with the practice.
Through all the sports and busy wanderings, finally I found an experience to pause, breath, exist, and observe myself. Wanting to explore this further, I took the yoga immersion and teacher training program at the Plymouth Yoga Room in the fall of 2015.
I have a foundation in Ashtanga yoga which forms the basis of my flows. My yoga goals for myself and my students are to cultivate a humble appreciation of our beautiful bodies as they currently are and to push the limits of what each body can achieve at its fully activated state. Outside yoga, I am a reader of books, a player of games, a runner of miles, a corrector of grammar, a walker of trails, a dreamer of dreams.
