In 2008, I started my Bikram yoga practice in Baltimore Maryland while attending my first Masters of Science program at the John's Hopkins University in pursuit of an Environmental Science and Policy degree with a focus on ecological management. After my first 90 minute hot class I knew this was the practice was for me; this is when my path towards self-realization as a life long study using yoga began. In the spring of 2015, I attended the Bikram Teacher Training in Thailand. After training I began teaching part time in the pacific north west and abroad (Humboldt CA, Sonoma CA, Bend, OR, and Mexico) while working as a full time environmental consultant.
Shortly after I started teaching I noticed the best way for me to translate environmental stewardship was to assist others in making better personal health decisions. Leaning on the philosophy that once we are in tune and make proper choices for ourselves, we can then be prepared to make better outward choices for our families, community and environment. In 2018, I opened the doors to Humboldt Yoga. Today I continue with my passions of teaching public and private yoga classes while pursuing environmental consulting on the side.
Most recently I completed a mediation certification with the Chopra Organization. This certification focuses in Primordial Sound Meditation and daily techniques for cultivating a happy, joyful and harmonious life while facing the conflicts of todays modern era.

Zenec's journey with yoga began in May of 2019 when he took his first class at Humboldt Yoga. After just one class he knew that the yoga had tremendous benefits to offer. As his practice continued he found the benefits to be greater than imagined. Weightloss, flexibility, increased strength, better sleep habits, and a healthier diet seemed to fall into place naturally. The yoga practice has also deepened Zenec's sense of connection to himself, his community, and the planet we all call home. In 2021 he completed a 50 hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training led by Bernie Clark through Yoga International. He then completed a 200 hour Yoga Alliance Certified 26&2 Teacher Training Program, led by Esak Garcia and the e84 Teacher Training Program, in May of 2022. With this foundation of knowledge he looks forward to sharing this amazing practice with others for years to come. Come in and take his 26&2 yoga or yin yoga class or say "hi" while he's helping manage the studio.
I was introduced to Bikram Yoga by a childhood friend who was a teacher at the time. I had been suffering from sciatica for a few months and I had tried everything to alleviate the pain. ( painkillers, massage therapy, chiropractors etc.) I had never broken a bone or had any serious injury in my life. I was an athlete and considered myself to be in good shape. Still, nothing was working.
A friend, who was a teacher, encouraged me to try Bikram Yoga. He went as far as to guarantee that within 30 days of doing yoga the pain would go away. I put him to the test! I signed up for a 30 day challenge and the rest is history. Not only did the pain subside, I started to notice other benefits from staying consistent with my practice. I felt a calmness, a sense of security and overall peace coming into my life. I felt grounded.
Happy that I was no longer in pain and feeling so good from my practice I wanted to know more about yoga.
In fall of 2012, I attended Bikram’s Teacher Training. In 2015 I trained with Dharma Mittra in New York City and since then I have been teaching in various studios.
When you find a good thing you just want to tell everyone about it! I believe I found a good thing! Looking forward to see you in the Hot room!
