Sam Cruickshank

Having dipped his toe in various yoga waters since childhood, Sam began his regular Bikram practice in 2014, with the realisation that (a) with advancing years he could no longer take his physical, mental and spiritual health for granted (b) “my health mattered because I matter”, and (c) a daily 90 minute practice of the 26 & 2 is the most efficient, accessible and holistic way to take care of ourselves.

Acting on this realisation brought about a transformation in his life that he felt compelled to share this with as many people as possible. He therefore took his Bikram training with the prestigious Nordic Hot Yoga Academy in 2021, and has taught in multiple countries across Europe, where he has been privileged to share his passion for the transformative power of the Bikram method, a passion he seeks to communicate to every student, knowing that through this shared discipline, we can change ourselves and change the world; one class, one posture, one breath at a time.

Since then he has broadened his yoga studies to include certifications in Sukshma Vyayama (With Karuna Yoga Vidya Peetham based in Bangalore), and also Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, “The Science of Stretching, Inferno Hot Pilates, Yoga Sculpt, and Kettle Bells. He is also available for private bookings for reiki, Sports Massage, Soft Tissue Therapy and Myofascial Release. Sam is also a passionate advocate of the growing movement in “Yoga Sports”, has represented the UK internationally, and serves as President of GBYSF (Gret Britain Yoga Sports Federation)
