(He, Him, They, Them)
Hi! I’m Sunray. I identify as a Queer Filipino-American who loves living among the majestic firs and snow-covered mountains of the Pacific Northwest. I’m a student of the Baptiste methodology and vinyasa yoga, and bring elements of Tai Chi, Qi gong, meditation, hot yoga, and restorative Yin practices to my classes. I like to foster calming yet playful energy on the mat and hope to create a space for curiosity, strength, and resilience during this time of loss and suffering. Whether you identify as queer, straight, transgender, BIPOC, non-binary or just uniquely you, you’re welcome in my classes. I look forward to being in community with you. I hope to form a sangha of other yogis where we learn from each other, not only to be better on the mat, but to find deeper meaning and become better humans at everyday life. I live with my partner and daughter in SE Portland where we’re renovating our home, learning to garden, exploring hiking trails, searching for Sasquatch, and trekking to the far parts of Cascadia on wilderness adventures.
