Gabriel's interest in Yoga Began when he met Bonnie Pariser at Yoga Loka. Her amazing approach to yoga help him heal dance related injuries and intensified his yoga studies. He completed the Yoga Loka teacher's training at the end of 2005 and through that process he was drawn into a very deep level of self inquiry and transformation.
"All through our lives we experience a continual process of evolution, at a physical, psychological and spiritual level. In nature when watching the life cycle of a caterpillar becoming a butterfly help us to accept the natural process of life. The practice of yoga brings us the tools to understand the meaning of this changes. My intention to the practice of yoga is that love is like oxygen for the spirit, it allows us to take a deep breath. "
