Braxton Rose is a local legend. Born in Beantown, he was the go-to yoga expert for Major League Baseball, hockey, and football teams in both New York and Boston.

Braxton is a teacher’s teacher and has trained many of Boston’s best-loved hot power teachers, including our own Shawna L. and a host of Down Under teachers. A renowned Egoscue Postural Therapist and functional movement specialist, he is considered an expert in biomechanics, gait dysfunction, and yoga therapeutics. Braxton’s ability to reprogram bodies toward optimal movement patterns makes him one of the city’s most respected somatic therapists and teachers.

A competitive athlete, bodybuilder, and marathon lover, Braxton studied psychology and built a career preparing athletes for competitive sports, triathlons, and pro-sports seasons before moving into academics and the use of yoga as a therapeutic tool for PTSD. Baptiste-trained, he counts Gregor, Claire, and Masaaki as his earliest mentors before going on to help open and run yoga studios on both coasts, serving as Director of Teachers in several, and leading yoga, movement, and postural therapy workshops across Europe and the US.
