After incorporating Reiki and readings on spirituality into his life, Cole decided to
explore Yoga. He recognized Yoga as a tool that he could use to connect with himself
and others. With an appreciation for its simplicity and depth he understood the ease
in which he could share the practice, which lead him to enroll in a teacher-training
program at the Chakra Yoga Pyramid in Thailand.
Cole sees value in the many styles of Yoga and the contrasts among them. He
enjoys the richness of group exploration and the self-exploration that it inspires. His
classes integrate Iyengar, classical Hatha, Pranayama, Acro, and Vinyasa practices,
while emphasizing the relationship between the Chakras and Asanas.
Cole believes that the following are essential to practice: integrity of alignment, the
ability to move smoothly, and a space for softness. He utilizes playfulness as a means
to discover truth in self and others. Cole approaches challenges with excitement and
enthusiasm and inspires others to do the same. His daily practice serves as a means
to ensure that his actions are in alignment with his intentions.
Embarking on a journey of celebration, reflection and rebirth, Cole’s cycle across
Canada is about dreaming large and stepping forward. In the biggest personal
challenge that he has ever taken, he is ready to plant the seeds of his future and grow
through this endeavor. His mission: to expand the branches of the yoga network and
community by sharing yoga across the country. Cole also has a plan to produce a
film that inspires perspectives of human connection, nature and yoga.
