Just a bit about me:
My name is Derik Eselius.
Personally, I was introduced to yoga on a rogue trip to India in 1991, just after highschool. My first yoga revelation….
“I had no idea that it was possible to feel so alive!”
This marked the beginning of a life long study – cultivated over decades by daily practice under masterful teachers, to whom I owe a great debt. Denver Yoga Underground is a reflection of my best understanding of how to share classical yoga in contemporary society in a way that is both equitable and sustainable.

About Us
The Denver Yoga Underground began in 2003 at the request of dedicated students who wanted to study yoga as a holistic system. Over the years, a diversity of people, seeking education outside of a studio, found a welcome refuge in DYU.
Today we specialize in grassroots Pay What You Can workshops, accessible retreats and our signature yoga teacher training, for the outlier yogi.
