Trevor Throop Yoga

Personal Yoga Instructor/Trainer

Trevor is a caring instructor who seeks to help his students find a yoga practice that can be both challenging and accessible for their strengths, goals, and needs. He helps students to see the joy and fun in the practice of yoga.

Beginnings

Trevor fell into yoga quite by accident. While working the front desk at 24 Hour Fitness, he found himself drawn toward the yoga classes available at the gym. Trevor soon realized that his collegiate theatrical training included many techniques, warm-ups, and other exercises which were often directly taken from, or closely related to, Yoga. He had an immediate affinity for the practice of yoga physically, mentally and spiritually, and began to attend regular classes over the next few years.

Sparking a Passion

With the encouragement of his teachers Trevor took a course to become certified as a group exercise instructor through AFAA and several yoga workshops. Before long he moved out from behind the front desk and began teaching. Trevor took the White Lotus Foundation's 16-day intensive teacher training certification program in early 2007. The experience gave him a wealth of new information and confirmed much of the knowledge he had gained in his years of prior experience. Training with Ganga White and Tracey Rich gave Trevor many new tools to use as a yoga instructor. Trevor grew as a teacher and as a person as he communed with nature and 30 other yogis at the mountain retreat.

Onward Journey

Trevor continues to broaden his knowledge of yoga asana and philosophy by attending classes and workshops regularly. He recently returned to the White Lotus Foundation's mountain retreat center for their advanced training program, where he once again studied with Ganga White and Tracey Rich. Their inspiration, knowledge and experience has helped shape Trevor's teaching and led him to grow as a teacher, a yogi, and a person.
