Braintree native Brian Culkin will be spreading his singular message throughout Europe in the upcoming months.
Brian Culkin, founder/owner of Jai Yoga, is bringing his unique philosophy on yoga and the power of human potential to studios and companies in Europe this summer.

Offering a varied slate of classes and workshops at Jai Yoga (pronounced with a soft "j" -- Sanskrit for "victory"), owner Brian Culkin views his latest project as more than just a yoga studio. With an eye toward modernity and the metaphysical, Culkin envisions the space to be a crossroads of classic values and current societal mores.
