The Yoga Loft Storybook: Sam Hasak

Why/When/Where did you start practicing yoga?

My yoga practice began in December of 2020 in livestream form with DownUnder Yoga in Boston. Yoga & meditation had always interested me, I was open-minded & in need of something to help ground me. My practice has since transferred to The Yoga Loft being closer to home & where I have the pleasure of practicing with my partner in person. 

How has yoga changed/influenced your life?

Yoga/meditation has gifted me with a stronger sense of mindfulness & presentness, I have acquired far more from my practice than I ever could have dreamt of in the past. The physical benefits have been eye-opening as well, yoga helps me stretch & relax my active body. I find myself being a strong endorser of having a yoga practice, always recommending the idea to friends or acquaintances in need of more peace in their life. 

What keeps you busy outside of the studio?

My life is incredibly busy much of the time, particularly relating to my work. I spend a lot time focusing on my career in the golf industry which has been building for a large portion of my life. When I am not working and or golfing, I enjoy spending my energy on running & other forms of exercise, anything that keeps me outside where I feel most comfortable. Spending time with my loved ones is always a priority as well.
