Christian Bevacqua is an independent teacher of Vedic Meditation,
working with individuals to sustain balance and achieve success in all areas of their personal and professional lives.
A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, Christian was born in
Brooklyn, New York and raised in the nearby suburbs of New Jersey. Awareness of his spiritual path began after reading Illusions by Richard Bach and Journey to the East by Herman Hesse.
Throughout the 1990s, Christian split
his life in two halves. During the day, he served as a technical consultant to
several Wall Street firms. At night, he delved into his creativity through writing and performing original music. His commitment to music led to the success of his own independent record label and paved the way to a recording contract with Reprise Records, a division of Warner Brothers.

It was on a nation-wide tour that Christian
first discovered Venice, California. By the end
of the decade, Christian surrendered to his calling and
made a new home in Venice where he continues to live and
teach today.
Since then, Christian has been an enthusiastic
practitioner of Yoga, under of tutelage of Bryan Kest
(yang) and Denise Kaufman (yin). On Valentine's Day,
2006, Christian learned Vedic Meditation from Thom
Knoles, the world's foremost instructor of Vedic Meditation
outside of India, and a leading authority on the Vedic
worldview. Following in the footsteps
of his mentor, Christian began teaching Vedic Meditation within eighteen months
of learning the practice. He finds true joy
in teaching this knowledge and building a healthful,
vibrant, and conscious community.
