Aaron started yoga in 2013. With a background in athletics and competitive sports, Aaron took his skills as a coach and athlete to the mat in order to bring yoga to as many populations as possible. Aaron works to teach that all people are able to find a relationship with their body and mind.

Aaron is an E-RYT 500 and YACEP with Yoga Alliance. He leads yoga teacher trainings in the New River Valley. Along with being a yoga educator, Aaron teaches corporate events, collegiate groups, as well as public and private classes, both online and in person.

Aaron taught public school for years, and brought movement and mindfulness into his classroom. Now he runs a small business in the New River Valley. He's a dad of two.

Before yoga, Aaron's primary focus was long-distance running. Yoga soon gave Aaron the same mental clarity that he had always valued in long distance running, except without the aches and pains. Being a runner, Aaron knows well the demands that athletes put on their bodies. Yoga created the balanced approach to athletics that Aaron now encourages his students to integrate.

As a practitioner, Aaron enjoys hot vinyasa classes. The power and heat are things that his pitta nature thrives in. As a teacher, Aaron draws heavily on the idea that we all have untapped power and potential in ourselves and that through yoga, we can push our edges and expand our sphere of competence and confidence. 

Aaron lives in the rural surroundings of Blacksburg, Va with his wife and two dogs.
