Eddie is an esteemed yoga teacher, author, and researcher based in New York City. He is the founder of Broome Street Ganesha Temple in Manhattan, author of the best-selling “One Simple Thing, A New Look at the Science of Yoga and How it can Change Your Life,” and is the co-creator of the Breathing App. He has a multi-disciplinary approach to yoga which includes studying traditional texts and combining the application of the practices contained within them to science, research, technology and collaboration.
He is involved in evidence-based research in the healing capacities of Yoga, recently completing Master’s in Science for yoga research at the Vivekananda Yoga University.
Eddie’s new offerings include “Healing through Breathing”, an Audible Original and “The Breathing App for Diabetes,” both released in January 2024. Eddie has been practicing yoga since 1987 and has spent the past 35 years traveling yearly from New York to study yoga, philosophy, ritual, and Sanskrit with his teachers in India. Whether in conversation, class or lecture, Eddie makes learning yoga and yogic traditions accessible to all and easily understandable with an approach that is intentionally uncomplicated.
Experience of yoga practices is not essential to come to the workshop. All the classes and talks are open level and for practitioners of any type of yoga.
About this collaboration
At Mission, we believe that the strength of the yoga community lies in collaboration, not competition. That’s why we are delighted to be working alongside the highly regarded Down to Earth.
In a city where yoga studios often operate independently, partnerships like this are rare, but deeply important. By joining forces, we aim to create a culture of connection and mutual support across London’s yoga landscape. Our shared intention is simple: to offer meaningful practices to as many people as possible, and to uplift the work of studios both large and small.
