“Bikram yoga gives my body and mind peace”

John Elliott aus Miami ist ein so regelmässiger Gastteacher im Studio an der Grüngasse in Zürich, dass er unter dem Team aufgeführt ist. Er veranstaltet auch immer wieder Workshops und kann so sein grosses Wissen und seine Erfahrung weitergeben. Nach jahrelanger Suche einen Weg zu finden, um seinen Körper zu heilen und zu stärken, fand er schliesslich zum Bikram Yoga. Es sollte sein Leben verändern. 2003 absolvierte er das Teacher Training. „Durch dieses Yoga lernte ich bisher neue Dimensionen der Verbindung mit meinem Körper und Geist kennen und es entwickelt sich noch immer weiter“, sagt er.

“Bikram yoga gives my body and mind peace”

John’s yoga journey began in 2001 in an effort to heal old discomforting injuries. He was in search of a more physical holistic approach to build strength and avoid surgery. John connected with Bikram yoga, finding the series beneficial for building strong healthy body and mind. In fall of 2003, John completed his teacher certification for Bikram yoga. His personal story inspired him to teach, as he knew first hand the healing power of a consistent dedicated daily yoga practice. Johns passion for the practice grows as he observes and guides his students through their own experience, bearing witness to constant progress and evolution. Today, John is pain free and believes “the yoga just works,” as he saw the change in himself and continues to see it in others. Now a world traveling instructor, Johns knowledge, humor, and contagious enthusiasm will make you crave his class, as he always leaves you challenged and wanting more. Fortunately, John often is teaching in Zurich as a guest teacher. He also gives workshops. “Bikram yoga gives my body and mind peace”, he says.
