Travis Eliot – Flexibility & Beyond

In 2004, Travis survived a near-drowning experience while attending a yoga retreat in Kauai. When faced with his death, Travis was most saddened he wouldn’t get to say goodbye to the people he loved. Fortunately, his life was saved, and Travis decided to leave the entertainment business and pursue his spiritual path. The near-drowning experience taught him the lesson — in the end there is only love. We don’t think about our bank account, or house, or job — we think about the people we love.

Almost a year later, Travis narrowly escaped the largest natural catastrophe in modern history — the Thailand tsunami of 2005. After witnessing two tidal waves demolish his resort, he found safety at the highest point on the island. This experience taught him the lesson — all things are impermanent.

These two cathartic events inspired Travis to begin teaching yoga and meditation.

Since 2005, Travis has passionately dedicated his life to teaching.

He teaches his signature Holistic Yoga Flow classes in Los Angeles and in workshops, festivals and retreats around the world. His style is intensely dynamic and has inspired many of today’s top athletes, celebrities, and entertainers.

Most recently Travis has become passionate about spreading yoga and meditation inside maximum security prisons. This work has proven to bring light to the darkest of places.

He is the creator of the groundbreaking programs Flexibility & Beyond, PowerYoga GOLD, The Ultimate Yogi, Yoga 30 for 30, along with many other best-selling yoga DVDs.

His book “Journey Into Yin Yoga,” was a #1 Amazon Hottest New Release. He is also the co-author of “Holistic Yoga Flow: The Path of Practice.”

His highly acclaimed chant album, The Meaning of Soul, debuted at #3 on the iTunes world music chart.
