Jonathan Fitzgordon
Jonathan Fitzgordon has been practicing yoga since 1995 and teaching since 2000, after studying with some of the yoga community’s leading teachers. He owned and operated the Yoga Center of Brooklyn from 2001–2009 and created the CoreWalking Program in 2005 out of his personal and professional experience with changing habitual movement patterns through self-awareness and repetition as a way to bring about positive change. Jonathan had suffered through three knee surgeries and repeatedly re-injured himself before stepping back to take a good look at how the body works. Injury-free these many years later, the walking program he created aims to help people age gracefully and live a pain-free life.
