Ed is from Belize and raised in Los Angeles. A Veteran of the U.S. Navy. In the latter part of 2017 challenges of life landed him at the Long Beach Veteran's Administration Hospital in the Substance Abuse Treatment Program. 

Yoga found him by way of the Pathways to Health Program Sponsored by the Veterans Yoga Project at the beginning of a journey of healing, introspection, and spiritual development.

"The impact of the Veteran's Yoga Project, Free Yoga on The Bluff, and the amazing group of teachers has had a tremendous impact on my life holistically. Attending classes at the studio elevated my practice preparing me for an amazing 200 Hr. Teacher Training experience."

​The Journey and all its twists and turns over a year have increased in depth and scope. Under the guidance of Dharma and an amazing community of Yoga Teachers, the culmination of his 200 Hr. YTT was the beginning of a renewed sense of self and purpose; a new life!

Over the past few years, bhakti yoga and devotional sound healing have become major paradigms and themes in his offerings of Kirtan, sound bath, and devotional yoga asana practice. Inevitably all of these components can be found in just about any offering of his.
