About the Instructor

Josh McGirk

I started taking yoga classes at a big gym in my neighborhood in 2000, having had a martial arts background. My favorite instructor suggested I take a teacher training, which at the time seemed idealistic, since I was working as an organic chemist for a big energy company. Here’s hoping you find as much joy in the air as we did in bringing this project to fruition.
