Brad Cierpicki

Born October 15, 1984 in Ottawa. Grew up mostly with my mom and sister. Like a lot of a Canadian boys I was involved in competitive hockey until my early teens. Finding autonomy through snowboarding, skateboarding and music which inevitably led to yoga. Which not only complimented finding my way seemed to define it. From Bryan Kest VHS tapes in the basement to Mysore, South India and in between. 25 years of practice have taught me just how thin the veil is and that we must begin again every single day. Inspiration is so vast so I’ll name only a few Tracy Chapman, Nina Simone, Saraswathi Jois. Thank you to my partner Nadia and my children Miles and Beatrix. 

Hanging with the kids, playing music, riding boards, making food, doing sun salutations, dazzled by all that touches me.
