My name is Tim Floreen, and I'm a yoga teacher in the San Francisco Bay Area. I like to play good music, crack stupid jokes, and make people sweat. If that sounds like a fun time to you, come take my class!

I walked into my first yoga class thinking I'd add a little stretching to my gym routine, but the practice soon changed my life in ways I never expected. I felt lighter, more peaceful, and more in touch with myself than I ever had before. Teaching yoga became my full-time career in 2000. I've completed over 500 hours of teacher training with my primary teacher, Dharma Mittra, and I’ve also taken teacher training programs with Bikram Choudhury, Baron Baptiste, Rusty Wells, and Janet Stone. During my time as a teacher, I’ve taught at studios all over the country and appeared as a yoga model in several publications, including Yoga Journal.

I teach a vigorous, challenging, heated vinyasa flow class, but always with the understanding that students should modify and rest as needed, and always with the awareness that yoga is much more than just a workout. My classes also include breath work, meditation, and other traditional yogic practices, as well as plenty of lightness and silliness. And did I mention I like to play good music?
