Keen On Adam
Sitting with Adam is a bit like sitting with David Beckham — they are both from Essex you understand — and are whirlwinds of energy!
When Adam isn’t practising yoga, he’s talking, recording his Keen On Yoga Podcast, writing his book, and after all that, asks “what else can I do today?”
To which he cheerfully answers, “I know, I’ll cook for them!”
Adam has a wonderful lightness to him. His nature is a living example of a powerful creative energy, he embodies the quality of vata (in Ayurvedic terms) a bundle of moving, swirling ideas, ready to spring to life, and of course this energy is naturally infectious.
He’s really quite punk in his inclination and seems to have a distaste for authoritarianism, which has transformed and shaped his worldview.
You’re going to love listening to his story and how he is continuing to help evolve the conversation around Ashtanga yoga as a living, working, yoga methodology, building upon the experience of the past to shape a new, more thoughtful future.
Adam has been practising Ashtanga yoga since 1998 and teaching since 2004.
He is one of few practitioners to have completed the Advanced A (3rd series) in Mysore, India, under the guidance of Sharathji Jois.
In 2012, Adam received level 2 Authorisation to teach the intermediate series. He has taught and lived primarily in London, with short stints in Vancouver, Spain, Crete, and India, as well as teaching workshops internationally.
Adam’s teaching is committed to facilitating the individual’s experience of yoga. Teaching is approached with a lightness of touch and an open mind. Outside the sphere of yoga, Adam is a continuous student of philosophy as well as having worked previously to teach as vegetarian chef.
You can find him teaching on Keen on Yoga, an online platform offering workshop and classes that he started with his wife Theresa.
