He traveled to India in 2000 to study at the Krisnamacarya Yoga Mandiram in Madras, India under the tutelage of T.K.V.Desikachar and his senior students. That experience ignited in him a desire to teach yoga. Andrew went on to more advanced study with the premier American Viniyoga teacher, Gary Kraftsow, director of the American Viniyoga Institute, located in Maui, Hawaii. After many trips to Maui, Kraftsow certified him to teach yoga in 2003; then as a yoga therapist in 2005.
