In May 2022, a friend brought Ethan to his first Hot 26&2 class. The class was the 60 minute variant. He quickly went back for another with his friend. After that he moved back to his home state of N.J. By November 2022, he signed up at Simply Hot Yoga & Fitness and instantly became a regular there. Within a year, two students approached Ethan and asked if he ever had considered teaching. A week later, the studio owner asked Ethan the same question. To which his answer was yes. Ethan enrolled in 105F’s teacher training program which is led by Gianna Purcell. By May 2024, Ethan was a certified teacher and started teaching immediately in June 2024.

Lately, a few of Ethan’s life guiding mantras have been: “The easy road often becomes hard and the hard road often becomes easy”, “The journey of 1000 miles starts with one step”, “Manifesting is doing, not hoping”, “Push yourself to close your windows of fear”, “Leave space for grace”, “Check your ego at the door”, and “You got this, you can do this”.

When Ethan isn’t at the yoga studio, he’s probably trying to get a group of friends together to play board games or Dungeons & Dragons. He’s a big lover of fantasy and sci-fi. Or painting a scene along with Bob Ross.
