Justin Blaze - Yoga Teacher
Influenced by my teachers and my brothers & sisters from the military, I aim to bring the healing benefits of yoga to active members of the military and our veterans. Through yoga, meditation and other healing arts my goal is to help students find the same healing, calmness and peace I have found through my yoga practice over the years.
