About Chris Walker
Yoga initially served as a replacement for physical exercise following the injury. In what may have been my second or third time on the mat, I felt some serious insecurities as yoga was the first physical activity that I wasn’t any good at since I was a kid. Was I a stereotypical guy doing yoga? What does that even mean? What am I even doing here? Is everyone staring at me? To overcome the first, I bought a 30 days for £30 intro to yoga pack at the closest studio to my flat in London and did 26 of 30 days. Once I became more comfortable with the physical practice, yoga not only helped me get past the above mentioned insecurities of being a man on the mat, but it helped me shift my focus on personal growth, happiness, and success inward instead of on external sources.
Yoga became an instrumental part of my personal journey to discover a sense of self and to heal from my past mistakes. It also quickly provided me with a sense of purpose and an outlet for me to be me. For the first time in a long time, I have been able to confidently embrace my sense of self within my own body. I made the courageous decision to leave my well-paid corporate job to pursue my passion of teaching yoga. I combine the scientific way my mind works, my early life religious upbringing, and my search for inner peace and purpose to help my students find their own personal ‘union’ which is what yoga’s all about.
Yoga is union. There can be no right or wrong union, so there can be no right or wrong yoga.
