Joseph started practicing yoga and meditation in 2015.  In 2019 after attending many meditation workshops and programs, he competed a 200-hour Meditation Teacher certification (Yoga Alliance) from Sacred Sit and in October 2025 he will graduate with a 200-hour Yoga Teacher certification from Breathe into Awareness.  Meditation changed and transformed his mind, healed past wounds, and enabled Joseph to find peace and happiness.  His classes infuse the pillars of mindfulness while taking students inward to discover that everything they need is already within themselves.  

 

Off the cushion Joseph infuses mindfulness and compassion into his daily life and relationships.  After 22 years of working in the professional corporate world, Joseph is embarking on a new journey of self-discovery and helping others to find inner peace.  

 

Joseph leads mindfulness mentoring circles, retreats, meditations, Yoga Nidra classes, and loves travel and adventure.  He enjoys cycling, both mountain and road , snowboarding, scuba diving, and he recently backpacked the entire 211-mile John Muir Trail in the Sierra Nevada mountains.
