Yoga Persona from Perth

Meet Marc Potter the multifaceted personality from Perth, Western Australia. Smiling, effervescent he exudes charm and calm. Tanned and lithe, energy seems to envelop him in a halo. The secret is not a mystery. He is a renowned yoga teacher practicing the art of Ashtanga originating from the land of Mysore in India's Southern State Karnataka.

His forte is training would be teachers and he achieves this by keeping his classes (www.sunsalute.com) small so that the real purpose of yoga is taught. He believes that practicing yoga will make the body light and flexible. As the internal organs and blood get heated during a workout the energy flow within will energize the body as well as the mind. He trains students and teacher trainees to develop core strength. He believes that getting in and out of a car easily or surf without experiencing back pain is possible by learning to develop core strength capability.

He is passionate about growing green lawns. At the age of 50 he is serious about starting his own turf business. He rides horses whenever he has free time and his vacations are sometimes spent at Byron Bay. It is a wonder that he gets to relax as he divides his other time in driving the best seafood truck (for Partridges Wholesale) in Western Australia. An Aussie at heart he drives for them as they sell seafood that is caught in Australian waters. He is a team member and drives for Cranmore Home (online home wear) located in Moore, WA.

The creative juices in Marc Potter are ever flowing with his other pursuits of wielding television camera for Channel 9. He dabbles in photography that has brought attention and he uses all these talents as a graphic artist. He learnt to surf while a kid and continues to ride the waves.

Despite this busy schedule he is a hands-on dad to his three children and along with his wife he has made a home in Trigg, WA.
