Andre's Story

A Sudden Crisis For Someone Who Has Given So Much

Andre Houle is known to many as the Yoga L.O.V.E Guru- and if you've ever stepped into his class, you know exactly why.He doesn't just teach yoga; He embodies kindness in everything he does.

Andre opens every class with a teaching that has stayed with so many of us: "Loka Samastha Sukhino Bhavantu"- May all beings be happy and free. It's not just a mantra to him. It's a way of life.

"People come to Andre's class for the stretch- and leave with so much more"

Andre's philosophy of yoga goes far deeper than the physical. He teaches us that there's more to being flexible, more to being strong, more to being able to hold a handstand. Yoga, in Andre's hands, becomes a path to knowing your true self- breaking down the barriers that keep us from living in balance across all levels of our being: physical, spiritual, emotional and mental.

On April 20th, during one of his beloved classes, an unexpected incident occurred. Andre was hospitalized and is currently receiving medical care. He will be unable to teach or work for at least 2 weeks while he recuperates.

Your support will help cover his medical expenses and daily living costs during this difficult time-so that his only focus can be on healing. Andre has given so much of himself to this community. Now it's our turn to give back.
