25 years in the Army. 800 hours on the mat.
The Man Behind the Mat
Rich didn't come to yoga looking for peace. He came because his body was asking him to listen. After a quarter-century of military service and a Parkinson's diagnosis that could have stopped him in his tracks, he chose a different path, one breath, one movement, one mindful moment at a time.
Today, Rich is living proof that a mindful life isn't a luxury. It's medicine.
