Loren Crawford has been teaching yoga in the Ottawa area for several years. Initially, Loren explored Hatha Yoga in his personal practice before venturing into Ashtanga and Power Yoga classes. Upon completion of his teacher training with Yogi Vishvketu in Ottawa, his love for the classical teaching of Hatha Yoga was re-ignited and he’s been teaching Hatha ever since.

Loren has since studied Ayurveda and is a certified Ayurveda Practitioner. The universe was shining his way when he met Yogarupa (Rod Stryker) in 2007 and became his student. Since then Loren has completed the Para Yoga Master Training with Yogarupa and is currently working towards certification in the Para Yoga system which is steeped in Tantric Hatha Yoga.

Loren co-teaches a teacher training program in the city and looks forward to bringing the teachings he’s been blessed with to students and teachers at Santosha.
