About JUDE
I have been both a student and teacher for as long as I remember.
​
As an Associate Professor at Mercer University I had over a decade of successful university teaching and the “security” of tenure, Yet I chose to resign, attributing the beginning of the end to a Kundalini awakening I experienced in my 30’s.
There was no place in the curriculum to integrate the spiritual wisdom I had attained from years of worldly travel and the extensive study of many forms of yoga with a particular emphasis on Kriya Yoga as taught by Sunyata Saraswati and Bodhi Avinasha to name a few.
Strangely enough, the day after I actually submitted my letter of resignation to Mercer, I finally started to write a book based on a years worth of legal pads based on what could only be described as downloads during my cobra breath meditations. The downloads made little sense at first until I realized that it all had to do with manifestation on a collective level. The basic outline of the practice was made apparent. I filled in the gaps with appropriate practices from my years of training as well as new practices that were delivered during meditation.
After two years of deep meditation, research, and writing, Collective Heart Yoga (CHY) became a reality.

My wife. Isabelle, and I currently live in Provence. We travel extensively, lecturing and facilitating open workshops. I approach this work with both academic rigor and spiritual dedication. My sole commitment is to help manifest an evolved Collective Consciousness where humanity can thrive in peace and harmony. CHY will always be offered freely and from the heart. We never ask participants for money, and the practice will always remain accessible to all who feel called to this vital work. Feel free to contact us for more information on upcoming speaking engagements or workshops and teacher trainings.
