MICHEAL TORU
TEACHER
Michael views yoga as his medicine. He was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder when he was 18 years old. Years of trying out different Western approaches, including surgery, proved to not be a long term solution. When he started practicing yoga his whole well-being became balanced and he learned to thrive! Michael now shares yoga with others to enhance their lives from the mat, to work, to family life and beyond. He has completed his 500-hr training with Eoin Finn and the Blissology Yoga School. The reverence of nature and community that embody this style of yoga influences every facet of Michael’s teachings. His studies in movement go beyond yoga into tai chi, capoeira, Movement Flow, barre, gymnastics, and calisthenics. He loves to infuse inspiration from each of these modalities into his classes. You’ll see Michael teaching Align Flow, Hot Flow and Intermediate classes at Yoga Lab. He can’t wait to see you on the mat!
