ABOUT ME
Eric is a Yoga Teacher and a life coach. His teaching style is engaging, empowering and creative, embracing the full potential of body, mind and spirit.
Eric was voted best yoga instructor in Washington, DC in 2016 and his students across the globe are a testimony of this honour.

His personal journey and transcendent life teachings light up his classes, shining hope, unwavering faith and transformation. Eric’s teachings inspire students from all walks of life to offer their best to themselves and the world.
His classes are fluid, breath-focused and purposely sequenced in the most rewarding way, helping students discover inner peace, serenity and joy.
Eric incorporates embodied wisdom from his work as a life coach and his teachings serve as a backdrop for the real transformation that happens when a student learns to quiet the mind and open the heart.
His classes range from peaceful, introspective flows to energetic mind and heart expanding power vinyasa.
Eric’s passion for yoga as a spiritual practice is felt in each posture, guiding from a place of long life learning, faith and trust in the sacred mysteries of life.
Eric’s kind and loving presence are well suited to leading students of all levels. He offers deep gratitude to his teachers Natasha Rizopoulos and Chanda Creasey.
“In a culture that discourages introspection, it takes a certain sensitivity to practice yoga in the first place. It also takes courage to reconcile what it means to stay sensitive in this world without losing a sense of self. Through my practice, I’ve come to understand that learning goes well beyond the intellectual, and through trust and faith in this spiritual realm, I walk this Earth knowing there is always potential to learn and grow, no matter what arises.” – Eric Schwarz

COACHING
When coaching, I use the Co-Active Model, a tried-and-true approach that provides a powerful process for engaging with others and is supported by current scientific research.
The program is built on the cornerstone that we are all naturally creative, resourceful and whole and that we all possess the capacity for knowing what is best for ourselves.
From this place, the Co-Active Coach comes from a place of authentic being, listening and encouragement, to uncover the best in oneself and others.
