Flying Heart Yoga Puerto Vallarta - 48380 Puerto Vallarta

Since a very young age, Willis has loved movement. Willis started dancing around age 10 and never looked back. After pursuing a BFA in dance performance from SMU, he danced professionally in New York City and Las Vegas with the Metropolitan Opera, The Chase Brock Experience, and Cirque du Soleil.

Willis found yoga in 2009 through navigating the physical and mental challenges of a professional dance career. Yoga seemed to shift and reorganize him. Since his initial adventure into the artful practice of yoga, his relationship with the discipline has only grown stronger.

After the passing of his beloved mother, Willis decided to shift a few things in his life. So, in 2014, he left his dance career and big city life in the United States and moved to his soul-home of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where he dove heart first into his 200-hour teacher training with his teacher Anna Laurita. Willis began teaching yoga shortly after and has since expanded his trainings, studying 300-hours with the dynamic and knowledgable Noah Mazé, 200-hours with Katonah Yoga, and more.

Willis founded Flying Heart Yoga Puerto Vallarta in Spring of 2022 with the vision of a space that holds community and the heart of yoga at its center.

Willis leads yoga classes, workshops, and retreats in Mexico and BEYOND.

A note from Willis:

I believe the practice of yoga offers up an incredible chance for us humans to get into our bodies, mediate our circumstances, and expand into our full potential. Yoga has the power to create great change—not only on a personal level, but also on an interpersonal level.

In my classes, expect to feel very welcome. I hold a space of non-judgement, where you are invited to explore all aspects of your self through breath work, meditation, and mindful, intelligent movement.
