A Letter from the Director − Lucas Rockwood (ERYT-200)
Dear Yoga Student,
If you’re a serious student or teacher looking to transform your own life and share yoga with the world, then I’d like to welcome you to Absolute Yoga’s Training College.
As a teacher myself, I’m continually amazed at how a consistent yoga practice can dramatically transform someone’s life-and often so quickly.
Ten years ago when I was working a corporate job on Lower Broadway in New York City, if you told me I’d become a yoga teacher, a teacher trainer, and eventually the director of one of the largest professional colleges in the world, I would have laughed out loud…
… but with yoga, everything is possible.
Absolute Yoga Training College is different than any yoga school you’ve seen before. We take a classic approach in that we embrace traditional yoga postures, breathing exercises and teachings; we honor the founders of modern yoga asana, and incorporate the best of the best.
At the same time, we’re a modern, open-minded school and we attract smart, independent thinkers. We have no interest or patience in old school systems with gurus and dogma, rules or group. At Absolute Yoga, our classes and courses are for everyone.
We’re committed to education, first and foremost, and we welcome students of all walks of life. Absolute graduates currently teach in 48 countries and in 16 languages. We have teachers who see yoga the perfect form of fitness, and for others, it’s very much part of the personal develop and even spiritual path. What yoga means for you is up to you, our school is here to provide you with real, professional training in hatha yoga.
If you like our approach, love yoga, and are ready to go deeper, you are most welcome to join us for a class, retreat, or training.
Hope to see you on the mat…
Keep practicing,

Lucas Rockwood
Managing Director
Absolute Yoga Academy
