Meet Andre
Chula Vista native Andre, the misfit yogi, is here to help you blast off to all new heights in your practice through his powerful and knowledgeable teaching style.
Andre is a seasoned yoga teacher and a licensed Rocket Yoga Trainer who has taught Rocket since 2013.
As a husband and father of two who now operates out of a studio space attached to his residence, the journey of the Misfits has always been oriented around not only building cOMmunity, but providing a cozy family feel.
His teaching style and approach:
HonoringThe Lineage, Bending the Rules
is inspired by Rocket's philosophy and methodology. Andre recognizes that the root of the Rocket practice is based in Ashtanga but has discovered the benefits of creative freedom within the system, which promotes rapid progress as both a student and teacher.
For Andre, the key to sustained motivation as a practitioner and instructor lies in a delicate balance of discipline and playfulness. This balance fuels his desire to continue seeking inspiration and growth.
