Sam Yo- From Buddhist Monk To Peloton Instructor

I am honored to welcome Peloton instructor Sam Yo. As a first-generation kid growing up in London, Sam was always interested in his Thai-Chinese heritage and saw Monks as figures to draw cultural knowledge from. This interest ultimately led him to step away from his career on the West End Stage and travel to Thailand to become a Buddhist Monk. That experience helped Sam understand more about himself, the power of silence, and the importance of showing up with positivity. All of which he took into his next endeavor as a fitness instructor, and after eight years of teaching spin classes, he received a message from Peloton. Sam is known for the nurturing and supportive atmosphere he creates on the bike, along with the fantastic playlists and nuggets of wisdom throughout class. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did and check out Sam Yo's classes on Peloton.Episode Resources:Sam's Instagram: @yoiamsamyoDownload this episode of For Your Listening Pleasure wherever you get your podcasts!
