Richard Baimbridge

Events Director of Yi Yoga

Richard Baimbridge (aka “Li Cha De”) is a writer, yogi, surfer and world traveler. He first studied yoga in NYC with Wanderlust co-founder Schuyler Grant, then moved to China in 2002 to help spread the yoga revolution in that country, as well as much of Asia. Richard earned his AcroYoga wings in Santa Barbara in 2008, and has since focused much of his efforts on studying and teaching Thai Massage with master jedi Gwyn Williams, as well as alignment-based vinyasa flow and AcroYoga in places like China, South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Mexico, Australia, and Indonesia. Recently, he left his home of China for the past 12 years to live full-time Bali (and traveling the world in general, as he tends to be highly nomadic). Richard is available for workshops/events/weddings/children’s birthday parties and bar mitzvas anywhere on the planet (and other celestial bodies nearby). He teaches in English, Spanish and Mandarin — but no matter what language, always with a smile and an open heart.
