Ryan-Daniel Smith
Yoga Instructor / Bodyworker



Ryan is skilled practitioner in the art of yoga and therapeutic massage. He is also an accomplished qigong healer continuing his education in qigong movement/meditation and its clinical applications. Ryan came to yoga in the late 90's in search of self-healing. He immersed in Kundalini Yoga with Guru Muhk, surfed Prana Flow Energetic Vinyasa with Shiva Rea, and bathed in the body wisdom of the teacher’s teacher Annie Carpenter, while living in Los Angeles over 13 years. Inspired by world-class teachers Jo Tastula, Matt Pesendian, Micheline Berry and many others throughout his years on the mat, he has come to find his own unique voice as a yoga guide. Ryan’s yoga is rooted in the tradition of Sri Krishnamacharya, offering a potent alignment-oriented practice that emphasizes the forms and actions within yoga asana. Classes progressively and safely sequence toward more complex peak poses, and spend time breaking down techniques for honing awareness on and off the mat. His practice draws upon a wide range of postures and modifications that build strength, flexibility and refine awareness in body and mind. For more info on Ryan go to www.Selflesslotus.com
