Meet Tom Gilette
Tom invites you to laugh, and love your practice. Practice everyday steeped in gratitude.
Tom has devoted his life to helping others by teaching yoga. He has taught thousands of yoga classes since 1988, owned four yoga studios, led 34 yoga teacher trainings, over 90 workshops at Kripalu Center and on and on and on. One day he hopes to grow up and get a life.
In the sunset of his life, Tom's yoga practice is starting to bloom. Everyday, he keeps reliving Ground Hog Day: awake at 3, a long practice, then broadcast at 6am. Teaching online everyday by donation has been a great joy.
Left Right Breath, Alternate Brain Hemisphere Breath is like meditation for dummies. Everyone needs help focusing on the tip of the nose and the fingers point the way. Different finger combinations are much like different postures. Tom developed a new vocabulary for traditional anuloma viloma / nadi shodhana, what it does and the many ways it works and is experienced.
The body of his teaching are a series of online workshops called “This Next Breath.” The daily recorded lessons are a slow, step by step, daily practice that anyone can follow. Because it is not about controlling the breath, it is often referred to as the “surrendered path.” One of the many benefits of not controliing the breath is that it is safe and beneficial for all. The yogis call left right breathing “tridoshic.”
