Bill began studying yoga in 1981 with Richard Freeman and by the early 90’s his yoga practice had grown to be a central focus in his life. Bill’s studies with K. Pattabhi Jois both in India and the United States greatly expanded his understanding and appreciation of the practice.

In 1994 Bill began teaching yoga at Richard Freeman's Yoga Workshop where he taught for 15 years while continuing to deepen his understanding of yoga and the mind/body connection through advanced study with Richard Freeman, senior Iyengar instructor, Gabriella Giubilaro, and through the practice itself.

His classes are a comfortable mix of sharing the details of alignment in the postures with a visceral understanding of the internal feelings that act as cues to movement within each posture. Through the utilization of breath, drishti, bandahs, and a slightly irreverent sense of humour, Bill attempts to foster an environment where the student can feel their individual circumstances and work with them directly.
