Bruce King, Yoga Professional

Bruce King, yoga instructor, began his personal yoga practice at the Nexxus Annex 1984. After 18 years of a demanding career, in 2001 he re-awoke to the idea that he was in control of his life and body. This awakening deepened his yoga practice and he added meditation to his routine. “I have witnessed positive changes in my moods, digestion and over all well-being. I see everyone experiencing the healing qualities of Yoga,” he says. Bruce, being a natural educator, also teaches music through piano and advanced hairdressing techniques. Wanting to share his love of yoga and spread his gifts as a teacher, he started his role as a yoga instructor here at The Posture Project in 2006 and attends weekly yoga training and continuous self study to stay inspired for his students.

“It is never to late to start...to change...to be happy in your body.

I seem to be lead to instruct. My education in Yoga is an ongoing journey.”
