Mark Westmoquette

Mark completed his PhD in Astrophysics at UCL in London in 2007 and went on to hold research fellowships both in the UK and Germany, specialising in the fields of star formation and galaxy evolution. In 2013 he decided to change careers to follow another passion of his, yoga. After completing his teacher training, Mark’s journey led him to study mindfulness and Zen meditation, becoming a Zen Buddhist monk in 2015. After a short training period, he left monastic life and now teaches yoga and meditation full-time.
