Eugene Butcher is co founder of acroyogadance. He was fascinated by the artistic potential of AcroYoga from the beginning, summed up by one of his favourite quotes..

“Let the beauty we love be what we do”- Rumi

Eugene’s training in martial arts and yoga caused him to question the usual acroyoga approach of constantly swapping practice partners, instead he chose to develop a deeper connection by practicing with one dedicated partner.

One year later DoYouYoga.com featured an acroyogadance video saying:
"UK-based yoga teacher Eugene Butcher and ballerina Pip Elysium perform a dance and AcroYoga sequence choreographed and executed with devastating elegance and grace. Watching this video makes you realise that, more than ever, AcroYoga is a means of creativity, of self-expression, and an art form it itself: a celebration of what a union of two human bodies, minds, and spirits in moving meditation can achieve."

Eugene remained dedicated partners with Pip for 3 years, the UK newspaper The Telegraph described thier work as "mesmerising"

He has taught thousands of people in UK and performed around the world, including an audience of 70K on stage at Wembley stadium. He’s co-founder of the UK’s first dedicated acroyoga studio. AcroYogaDance is a plant based company committed to the yogic principle of ahimsa “peacefulness and non-violence to all living beings”

Eugene’s passion is helping people reconnect to their childhood dream, sense or feeling that they would one day do something amazing and beautiful.
