“While playing for the Atlanta Falcons as a professional football player in the NFL, a consistent practice of yoga payed dividends for me both physically/mentally. Billy played a pivotal role in that. He is one of the most giving human beings on this earth and I’m glad our paths were destined to cross in 2012 at Pura Vida Fitness and Spa.  Yoga allowed me a practice where I was able to see my body adjust to a different type of exercise, compared to say, weightlifting. Billy has a great approach, allowing you to progress at your own speed and what you feel comfortable with during the practice of yoga. Never once did i feel pressed to replicate challenging posses that I or my body wasn’t ready for. I attained such a love for practicing yoga that I decided to travel on a Billyyoga retreat to Lumeria, Maui during the winter of 2015 with a group of 14 people. The travel/itinerary was so meticulously put together and planned by Traci (Billy’s Wife) and Billy, all I had to do during my trip was be at our planned destination and be open. I can’t wait to make it to another excursion in the next few years to experience the fantastic vibes and yoga practice that Billy provides for fellow Yogis.  Billy will always be a great friend, yoga instructor, mentor, and person to contact when you need/don’t need anything because he will give you the same undivided attention because he cares that much. Yoga has opened many doors, allowing me to be more open minded and acceptable to life as well as the world around me. I thank Billy for being a constant influence in my life to do the right thing and always care for others, something I will always do until my dying day on earth. ”
