Robert has always been keenly moved to share both his inspiration and yoga and meditation experience with others.  He has and continues to be the lead teacher at Rama Lotus for most of the Hatha Yoga, Restorative Yoga and Kundalini Yoga teacher training programs since 1999.  His mission is to empower 1000s of individuals in their lives through regular classes and retreats and to train numerous dedicated instructors who will in turn inspire 1000s more.

Robert started practicing various types of meditation while in high school, but not until he was doing a B.A. in sociology/psychology did he start practicing regular hatha and kundalini yoga classes.  While completing his M.A. in sociology at Carleton University he was asked by his two Kundalini Yoga teachers if he would like to start teaching.  And so it began… As the original Founder of Rama Lotus Yoga Centre in 1994, Robert shares his love and experience of yoga and meditation with his students through his powerful, insightful and fun classes at Rama Lotus and with private, group and corporate retreats at his yoga facility near Wakefield, Quebec – the Yoga Garden Retreat.

When participating in Robert's classes you get the benefit of his experiences from studying with the many advanced teachers Robert has been inspired by and studied with. These include Kundalini Yoga masters such as Yogi Bhajan and Babaji (Varanasi) to Hatha Yoga master teachers from both the east and west such as John Friend, Richard Freeman, David Swenson, David Life, Donna Farhi, T.K.V. Desikachar and Erich Schiffman.

He has found great physical healing, mental clarity and has been personally empowered in his life in the larger sense through all these great experiences with fabulous teachers plus his personal sadhana over the years.  Robert would like to invite you to come and try a class and experience the power and beauty of yoga for yourself.  And if you haven't been for a while – come again!
