Blake’s teaching style is unique, funny, heart warming, and powerful. His teaching style is influenced by Angela Farmer and Victor Van Kooten, Judith Lasater, Gary Kraftsow, BKS Iyengar, Anusara Yoga, Integral yoga, Kripalu yoga, yin yoga, restorative yoga and Ti Harmony & Molly Drake (local legends in Chapel Hill, NC).

He teaches ‘regular’ yoga classes, yin yoga, restorative yoga, and his innovative style called Deep Roots Yoga (read about DeepRoots here) as well as offering workshops and retreats in restorative yoga, Deep Roots Yoga, hatha yoga, and expressive movement. His approach is focused on psychological and emotional healing and well-being, as well as strengthening and flexibility. Blake is NOT an information pusher. It’s all about the experience!  He always brings a guitar or some other instrument and a chant or song to deepen students’ final relaxation.

Blake is registered with the Yoga Alliance (RYT), completing his primary teacher training with Ti Harmony of Carrboro, NC in 2010. He is also a registered Relax & Renew® (Restorative Yoga as taught by Judith Lasater) trainer (find him on restorativeyogateachers.com). He graduated from The University of North Carolina in 2007 with BA’s in Psychology and Anthropology. He lives in the woods outside of Chapel Hill, NC with his dog among the swaying pines.

“I want to commend you Blake because your style is lovely. It’s natural. It’s sweet. it’s servant. Its kind. And it’s light and funny. And I just I think you’re a complete natural as a yoga teacher–plus you’re creative with the visualization and imagery that you share with people. Bravo Blake.”
