Teachers

Hi, I’m Roy Gan (E-RYT 200), a classically trained dancer from Singapore with over 15 years of experience in dance, teaching, and choreography. Besides my passion for movement, I am also a non-practicing lawyer and a proud graduate of the Yoga Garden SF 200-hour Advanced Studies program, where I deepened my knowledge of yoga. I’ve been teaching yoga since 2011, and it has become an integral part of my life. You can find out more about me and my work on my website at roygan.com. I also share insights, inspiration, and updates on my yoga journey on Instagram. Connect with me @royganchannel. My approach to yoga is all about removing the blinders and giving myself the radical permission to honestly explore the capabilities of my mind and body. Yoga has been a profound source of transformation, grounding, and healing for me, and my mission is to share this experience with others. I strive to encourage inner intuitive listening and raise consciousness, embracing every aspect of the human experience without hesitation. Through mindful practice, I support individuals in honoring and appreciating themselves. Creating a safe and non-judgmental space is important to me, as it allows people to discover their inherent greatness. In my teaching, I focus on a dynamic, dance sequenced yoga flow that fosters a holistic awareness of breath, proper alignment, strength, flexibility, and conscious co-ordination. It’s about bringing consciousness into everything we do. I believe that yoga is not just a physical practice but also a powerful tool for training the mind and intelligently regulating our emotions. It helps us become aware of the obstacles that hinder our freedom, and through dedicated practice, we can gently remove these barriers. With steady determination and a sustained yoga practice, we can ground ourselves in unqualified awareness, leading us to live a life filled with love, health, abundance, and fearlessness. Join me on this incredible journey of self-discovery and empowerment through the practice of yoga. Together, we can unlock our true potential and embrace a vibrant and fulfilling life.
