Glenn first began his yoga journey in 2013 in order to increase his mobility and flexibility in hopes of improving his racquet game, but immediately fell in love with the Iyengar method. He has since learned to embrace and deepen the spiritual side of his yoga practice, in addition to his appreciation of its physical benefits. Orginally from NYC, he’s found that a regular yoga practice has helped create distance from the frenetic pace that had been so ingrained. In his spare time, Glenn enjoys spending time at the park with his dog, Peanut.
