James Alvarez

I was raised in the Caribbean and have a passion for the beach life so I Surfed, Biked, Practiced Yoga & Love playing music, all of which I did in or around the beach. From an early age I started to fall in love with being healthy as it always made me happy so common sense told me to always strive for a healthy lifestyle to stay happy in this one life I have been given. I then stepped it up a notch @ 14 years old by cooking @ my house a couple times a week and this just sealed the healthy deal between eating right and staying physically fit. Through the years there was one thing left to make this healthy lifestyle really complete and that was Yoga & Meditation, once I took the time to incorporate Yoga into my life 5 years ago it has become as important as eating right and exercising and I am dedicating my life to practicing and teaching Yoga full time. You know what? I am the happiest I have ever been because I'm doing something that brings joy to people and to Me.

I have a Bachelors Degree In Health & Wellness from Sacred Heart University also I have a Associated Degree in Culinary Arts from Johnson & Wales University. I am an RYT 200 Certified Yoga Instructor through Yoga Alliance. I am a Certified Personal Trainer through N.F.P.T. & also a Nutrition and Endurance Specialist through N.F.P.T.
