Eric Coker

What seems like ages ago, Eric (he/him) was trained as an engineer and scientist.  While this background provided him with many adventures, employment, and a deep mechanistic understanding of the world, it left a yoga sized hole in his heart.  Luckily, when the mental and physical toll caused by decades of being embedded in western culture finally caught up to him, there were skillful teachers available to meet him where he was at, to show him another way of looking at, being in, and engaging with, the world. 

As a teacher, Eric wants nothing more than to pay forward the work of his teachers by serving others who are finding their own way to a beautiful practice.  Eric enjoys using science, metaphor, philosophy, and story to help bring the practice of yoga alive and point to the importance of practice to daily life.  Mindful attention is at the center of all of his classes. 

Eric completed his 200 hour yoga teacher training at Evolution PT and Yoga in 2022 and trained to teach MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) at Brown University  in 2023.
