<p>Known professionally as Amandi Music, “Mandi” is a Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, and producer based in Boston. His transformative journey began while sitting at a gas station on the Mass Pike, en route to the Berkshires, debating whether to attend a yoga retreat at the Kripalu Center.</p><p>At the time, Amandi tipped the scales at 400 pounds and was determined to break old patterns and prioritize his health. That weekend retreat became a turning point. Since then, the practice of yoga — and its ability to harmonize mind, body, and spirit — has completely transformed his life. He has become a source of energy and frequency to those around him.</p><p>Amandi shares his story and insights into how yoga helped him lose weight, feel younger, move more freely, improve his fitness, shift his mindset, and ultimately, save his life.</p><p><br /></p><p><strong>Connect with Mandi</strong></p><p>✩ C.R.A.W.L: <a href="https://www.dontwalkcrawl.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.dontwalkcrawl.com/</a></p><p>✩ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dontwalkcrawl/</p><p>✩ Mandi’s Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/amandimusic/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/amandimusic/</a></p><p>✩ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AmandiMusic</p><p>✩ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amandimusic</p><p><br /></p><p><strong>Support and stay connected with the GTY community</strong></p><p>✩ Website: <a href="https://www.gtypodcast.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.gtypodcast.com/</a></p><p>✩ Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/gtypodcast/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/gtypodcast/</a></p><p>✩ Youtube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@guystalkingyogapodcast%E2%81%A0" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@guystalkingyogapodcast</a></p><p>✩ Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/guystalkingyoga%E2%81%A0" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/guystalkingyoga</a></p><p><br /></p><p><strong>Check out Yoga For Dudes with Larry</strong></p><p>✩ Website: <a href="https://www.yogafordudes.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.yogafordudes.com/</a></p><p>✩ Youtube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@UC4yM9Mv-q7fA8VKBEyzt27A" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@UC4yM9Mv-q7fA8VKBEyzt27A</a><br /></p>

<p>In 2008, Mark Stefanowski sought a life change after a DUI charge on Christmas Day. He began watching VHS tapes of Bryan Kest’s power yoga classes, which led him from a basement practice to the systematic and consistent practice of Bikram yoga. Eventually, he found his place—and later completed his training—at CorePower Yoga.</p><p><br></p><p>Now a Harley-riding, charismatic, and thoughtful yoga instructor, Mark teaches online classes, in-person donation-based sessions at breweries, and maintains a regular schedule at CorePower Yoga in Colorado. Passionate about making yoga both accessible and challenging, he brings his signature Full Throttle style to the greater Boulder area, helping others embrace the practice as he has.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Connect with Mark</strong></p><p>✩ Full Throttle Yoga: https://www.fullthrottleyoga.com/</p><p>✩ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fullthrottleyoga/</p><p>✩ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ftyogamark</p><p>✩ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/user/mstefa01</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Support and stay connected with the GTY community</strong></p><p>✩ Website: https://www.gtypodcast.com/</p><p>✩ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gtypodcast/</p><p>✩ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@guystalkingyogapodcast</p><p>✩ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/guystalkingyoga</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Check out Yoga For Dudes with Larry</strong></p><p>✩ Website: https://www.yogafordudes.com/</p><p>✩ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC4yM9Mv-q7fA8VKBEyzt27A</p>
