Hey everyone, my name is Gerardo Cortes! I graduated from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in the Central Coast of California in Spring '18. I'm an optimistic, compassionate, and easy-going individual who loves embarking on adventures and co-creating positive change in the world. I'm a certified yoga teacher, massage practitioner, and a vegan of +4 years with a passion for health & wellness, helping people live out their best life, and raising the collective consciousness & awareness of our planet!

I love spending time in nature, connecting with other heart-based individuals, and curiously uncovering how we can continue to live out our maximum potential while living in harmony with the natural cycles of the Earth.

A few fun facts: I'm a lefty, a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, completed my 200-hr Yoga Teacher Training in Dharamsala, India, and have recently fallen in love with dance! I look forward to connecting and sharing space with you!

Mahalo & much love everyone :)
