Arthur Avary

I first started earnestly working yoga into my life in 2010 at the Yoga Works Larchmont studio in Los Angeles where my primary teacher was Amy Lafond.

Inspired by Alignment based Hatha, Vinyasa Flow, and Iyengar teachers, I was soon convinced of the capacity for an asana practice to build somatic ‘intelligence’ and foster self awareness – promoting health and wellness, cultivating a greater sense of inner peace, and catalyzing spiritual growth. With a long and continued interested in Taoism, Buddhism, Shamanism, Transcendental Meditation and Samkhya Philosophy, Yoga became for me a meeting place of philosophy, spirituality, and our daily ever present embodiment. A true study of self and of human nature.

In the fall of 2016 I attended the Content Souls Yoga Teacher Training Program lead by Kirtan Smith and am a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, which acknowledges the completion of a yoga teacher training with a Registered Yoga School (RYS).

I have since gone on to become a mentor for further Content Souls teacher trainings, and have completed a 35 hour ‘Pranify your practice’ training with Annie Carpenter, a workshop focused on Yoga Nidra with Jillian Glikbarg, as well as a subsequent 200 hr Teacher Training Intensive with Richard Freeman and Mary Taylor.
