Johnny Glover

Johnny Glover has been teaching yoga and meditation since 2001. He first qualified as a Yoga Teacher with the Yoga Therapy and Training Centre (YTTC) in Northern Ireland, later qualifying as a Yoga Therapist. To deepen his practice, he completed a two-year teacher training (2005–2007) at Mandala Yoga Ashram in Wales.

Alongside yoga, Johnny has been a long-time practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism. He took refuge with Chöje Akong Tulku Rinpoche in 2003 and, on the advice of Chöje Lama Yeshe Losal Rinpoche, attended Mingyur Rinpoche’s Mahamudra course at Kagyu Samye Ling from 2007–2008. In 2009, he completed the Foundation Training in Mindfulness with Rob Nairn, and more recently completed Mingyur Rinpoche’s Meditation Teacher Program with Tergar International.

Johnny is grateful for the guidance of his main teachers, Swami Nishchalananda Saraswati, founder of Mandala Yoga Ashram and a senior disciple of Swami Satyananda, and Chöje Lama Yeshe Losal Rinpoche, Abbot of Samye Ling and a respected meditation master in the Kagyu lineage. Johnny shares the practices with an open heart, encouraging participants to do what they can with awareness and acceptance.

Johnny has delivered yoga and meditation courses at Kagyu Samye Ling Tibetan Buddhist Monastery and Centre for World Peace and Health since 2003.

"Johnny Glover completed our two year Teacher Training Course at Mandala Yoga Ashram from 2005 - 2007. He is trained in both the Yogic and Buddhist traditions and the courses he proposes to give promise to be an excellent opportunity for those who participate and who want to go deeper into Yoga."
