Business Owner

Richard’s yoga experience began in the Iyengar tradition, studying for several years with such notable instructors as Judy Rice of Louisville, KY, Michele Franey of Somers Point, NJ and Joan White of Philadelphia, PA. Richard lovingly considers Judy and Michele to be two of his primary gurus, teaching him the importance of alignment, discipline, self-​confidence, student safety and, most importantly, loving-​kindness.

Richard has studied with many other inspirational instructors, including Christopher Baxter, Martha Abbot, Ed Harrold, Amy Stephanik, Shiva Rea, Doug Swenson, Laurie Greene, Jill Miller and many others over the years. This is in addition to teaching classes in a number of great studios, including Comfort Zone Yoga and YogaNine in southern New Jersey. He is currently completing his 500-​hour certification through Discovery Yoga Center of St. Augustine, Florida (a Kripalu-​affiliated studio).
