TODD LABERGE

yOGA BY ACCIDENT

Todd taught his first class by fluke when he showed up along with others to practice at a cancelled class. He volunteered to save the day, blew everybody away that day with his energy and enthusiasm and the decision was made that he was meant to be a teacher. Months of study later, he started his 2 classes a week.

We'd have him slave every day but that's the most he can squeeze into a schedule of full time Ironman training and some high-flying engineering job at Intel. His 15 plus years of experience with triathlon shed a very relevant light to those of us on the more athletic and tighter side of the practice and he is brilliant at translating the wisdom from our yoga practice into tools we can use in our other favorite sports, be it to gain a competitive edge or prevent a sports injury.

Always spontaneous and high energy, his classes are a fun mix of great music tunes, unabashed humor, Survivor reviews and dating advice.

"My life doesn't feel complete if I don't practice regularly. Much like the regular outside activities that fuel my physical and mental health, my yoga practice ties everything together, recenters my mind, and helps me deal with the challenges in my day job."   ~ Todd LaBerge
