Joshua’s journey with the Himalayan Institute began in 2008 when, at just 12 years old, he felt drawn to its teachings. Two years later, a transformative trip to Cameroon deepened his appreciation for the Institute’s mission and its power to create meaningful change in the world and within individuals.

After earning his undergraduate degree in Mathematics, Joshua joined the Himalayan Institute’s residential service program. He completed the Institute’s 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training and now shares his love of yoga through classes and practicums at the Pure Rejuv Wellness Center, weekly sessions at the Himalayan Institute Retreat Center, and contributions to HI Online.

In his teaching, Joshua’s heartfelt mission is to remind others that personal growth and healing are accessible to everyone—no prerequisites or permissions required. With a wise and grounded perspective, he seeks to inspire confidence in the transformative power of yoga and self-discovery.

Beyond teaching, Joshua blends his technical expertise with his passion for service as a web developer in the Institute’s Creative Services department, embodying a modern approach to tradition while staying rooted in timeless wisdom.
