Banyan Gallagher has been closely studying the arts of movement since the age of 12.  His background as an NCAA athlete contributed a strong discipline in his current practice, and a deep understanding of the limitless movements the human body has evolved to make.  Banyan’s yoga studies began as a search for flexibility to expand his performance art potential, but soon realized the benefits going on a far deeper level than the physical.  He practices a form of Tantra-Hatha Yoga, a series of techniques woven together to accelerate evolution and overcome our limitations on a subtle plane. 

From the very start, Banyan has had the pleasure of studying with some of the world’s most renowned teachers, from Tias Little to Andrey Lappa, Shiva Rea to Ana Forrest, Eddie Modestini to Nicki Doane, Jim Bennitt to Rod Stryker. Banyan passes the tradition of T Krishnamacharya forward, prescribing different yogas for different individuals.  His multidisciplinary studies have facilitated this process well.  In his classes, he blends traditional teachings with modern analogies in the interest of giving the Western practitioner direction, stillness, and balance.  And maybe a laugh here and there.

Testimonials

“The most important thing to know about yoga with Banyan is that you are going to have fun. He teaches with a light touch whilst still respecting the traditional and spiritual aspects of yoga. I've done two yoga/ poi retreats with him now and his style perfectly compliments the poi lessons. Doesn't do any harm that he is a super nifty fire performer as well.”
