Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: My passion for living a healthy lifestyle and helping others do the same is what drives me as a personal trainer and a yoga teacher. I have my bachelors degree in exercise physiology and psychology. After college, I completed my Personal Trainer Certification with The National Academy of Sport and Medicine. For my yoga teacher training, I studied under Ganga White, "The Pioneer of Western Yoga". I also have 300+ hours observing in a physical therapy setting giving me a good understanding of injuries and injury prevention. I am constantly researching into the latest findings of fitness and wellness so I can be a useful tool in helping my clients achieve their goals. As a personal trainer, I help my clients achieve their goals whether it be to gain muscle, lose body fat, achieve their ideal physique, improve sport performance, recover from an injury, move and feel better, or simply to get on track to living a healthier lifestyle. I train my clients at La Mirada Creek Park and bring all the equipment we will need. I am also available to travel to your home if that is more preferable. Remote training is also available at a discounted rate. As a yoga teacher, my main focus in teaching is guiding students into a deeper awareness of themselves physically and mentally. Our sessions together will include poses (specific to the clients skill level and goals), breathing exercises, relaxation techniques, and meditation. I help students who are complete beginners looking for a way to begin their yoga journey as well as more advanced students looking to refine their practice. For private sessions, I will travel to your home and will bring all the props needed. Group classes, events and online sessions are available as well.

Private Yoga Instruction

I’m a 6’2” and 220 lb man who used balk at yoga. I was a soccer athlete who transitioned to weightlifting and didn’t care much about flexibility until I started experiencing severe back pain. I decided it time to keep an open mind and found Drew on Thumbtack. I’ve been working with him for the past couple of weeks and I honestly look forward to our sessions. Drew is a genuinely nice guy. He is soft-spoken, patient, and he customizes his lessons to your needs and limitations. I was impressed that he wanted to speak with me and learn more about why I wanted to sign up before sharing a price quote. In addition to the mobility work, I also look forward to the meditation we do before and after every session. If you’re looking for a private instructor then look no further- Drew’s your man.

Drew was awesome. I’ve barely ever done Yoga so obviously was self conscious on not being great at it. He gave a ton of personal attention and provided great feedback and instruction. Also has a soothing voice which helps haha

Drew is an excellent instructor who provides a welcoming, yet challenging, environment whether you are brand new to yoga or are a seasoned practitioner. I highly recommend him for a group class, private lesson, or company event.
