Bryan Crigler

Bryan first found yoga and meditation through his martial arts practice (Shito Ryu Karate, Choy li Fut Kung Fu, MMA, Kick Boxing and BJJ) over a decade ago. He has continued exploring the depths of his physical, mental and spiritual practices through yoga ever since. His journey has led him to practice and explore many different styles of yoga across 5 different continents. Having a passion for acquiring knowledge and studying the ancient yogic scriptures, Bryan loves to integrate these teachings into his classes and expose students to this incredible wisdom passed down through the ages. Bryan is a dedicated practitioner of Raja and Hatha Yoga, Pranayama, Vishoka Meditation, Qi Gong and the Wim Hof Method and brings a unique flavor of all the practices he embodies to the classes he teaches.

“Vishoka Meditation is an approachable, systematic method, and is grounded in the real personal experience of the practitioner. In a world dominated by distraction and constant stimulation, these kinds of practices are desperately needed. Pandit Rajmani Tigunait has done phenomenal work in presenting this system in a very understandable way and The Himalayan Institute has done an incredible job ensuring that all CVMTs have a solid mastery of the practice, grounded in personal experience.”
