Hi, I’m Michael.
I’m a yoga coach.
I help people use yoga to enrich their lives.
I’ve worked one-on-one with hundreds of students, studied and taught all over the world, and I’m just as passionate today as I was 20 years ago.
My mission is to educate and empower folks with effective tools and systems to live a more fulfilling life.
Want to create a joyful, sustainable yoga practice?

MJH’s Writing:
Feeling Stuck?
Go Deeper With Your Practice
I’ve spent my adult life learning traditional yoga practices. I’ve been fortunate to have the time and access to teachers I admire and respect.
I reckon you don’t practice as long as I have with out picking up some tips on enjoying your practice long term.
Let me share with you what I’ve learned.
Mysore Style Ashtanga Yoga
One-on-One Instruction in a Group Setting
Mysore Style Ashtanga Yoga bridges the gap between the energy and motivation (and cost savings) associated with a group yoga class, with the benefit of the individual instruction of a private yoga session.
Straight-forward approach to yoga, tailored to you
Ashtanga yoga follows a sequence that is highly adaptable.
Not sure where to start? No problem. We’re really good at helping folks figure that out.
“Open” Practice style means never being late
The room is open for a few hours, and the teacher helps out. Since everyone’s working on their own thing, folks are welcome to come whenever is best for them.

How Can I Help?
I’ve worked with a lot of folks, so not much spooks me.
I love helping people jumpstart their yoga practice, refine their techniques, and enjoy collaborating.
