ABOUT JULIAN

Hi there. My name is Julian Paik, and I am the biggest work in progress I know. I have been teaching yoga since 2003, and meditation since 2016. My story isn’t an original one: For as long as I can remember, I have been on a never ending search to alleviate the stressful challenges of my life, whether they be the corporate world, the fast pace of technology, or difficult relationships both past and present. In an effort to achieve a more peaceful state of mind, I’ve thrown everything but the kitchen sink at all of my “issues” over the years, whether it be changing my diet, trying some new fad kind of exercise, reading the hottest self-help books, or giving things like psychotherapy and hard drugs a try. You name it, and I’ve tried it. But I must say, with the utmost conviction and confidence, that the single, most effective practice that has worked for me has simply been yoga, and more specifically, MEDITATION.

The style of yoga and MEDITATION that I teach is not of one particular type or brand, but rather it is a combination of all of my influences throughout my career. So it’s really not so much a practice that I’ve founded or invented, but more so a regurgitation of the wisdom from my teachers over the years. As both a teacher and a student, I feel like I am getting better and better at understanding and conveying that wisdom, so just know that it’s there for you if you want to dive in.

But MEDITATION is not something you can hard sell, so I won’t. You’ll know when you’re ready for it. And when you are, it’d be my pleasure to share with you the vast beauty I’ve been feeling, as it’s simply changed my life for the better FOREVER. ❤
