He founded Yogartec company in which he hosts art and yoga therapy workshops across Nairobi, Kenya. He is working with local disadvantaged communities and as well as members of his own community as a volunteer, sharing the practice of Kundalini Yoga for free to the disadvantaged groups e.g. People living with HIV/Aids, pregnant women and children. John’s classes are enjoyable, thoughtfully and artistically designed to have a therapeutic effect for the students participating. The grant money from Kundalini Beyond Borders will allow him to expand his services throughout Nairobi and make Kundalini Yoga accessible to so many in vulnerable populations.
