Hey friends!

If you didn’t know, I’m Rich — a yoga teacher, spin instructor, and personal trainer based in Highland Park.

If you know me as a friend or student, you know how much teaching has completely changed my life. It’s a huge passion of mine, and I’m beyond excited to take the next step by completing a 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training.

Advanced training will allow me to bring more depth, safety, and creativity into the classes and workshops I already share with my community — including expanding free and donation-based offerings for people who might not otherwise have access to yoga.

100% of funds raised will go toward tuition and required materials.

How You Can Help

Any donation helps — even $10 brings me closer!

If you’re able to contribute more, your support directly helps me build more community offerings in 2026, such as quarterly workshops and community yoga events inspired by what I’ll be learning.

The program runs six months, with a hybrid format that includes an in-person intensive toward the end. Every dollar raised goes straight to the cost of attendance.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing the campaign or showing up to future classes and events means just as much.

Your support helps me continue to teach, grow, and give back in a deeper, more meaningful way.

Thank you for being part of this next chapter!

Rich :)
