Bill Dorigan
Bill Dorigan, J.D., M.A., is a certified Anusara Yoga teacher who started practicing yoga after a long history of athletics, which included college football (he was a 230 pound lineman and a center for Ken Anderson, who went on to become the Cincinnati Bengals’ All-Pro quarterback), martial arts (Bill holds three black belts), and participation in marathons and triathlons. Bill began his yoga practice in the Iyengar tradition in 1998, and his curiosity and interest in yoga philosophy led him to eventually begin the study of Anusara Yoga. Bill has completed thousands of hours of yoga training, including numerous teacher trainings and therapy trainings and continues to study regularly with Iyengar teachers and others. Bill has immersed himself in yoga philosophy, studying extensively with Dr. Douglas Brooks, Sally Kempton, Dr. Paul Muller Ortega, among other teachers. In July, 2013 Bill released a book on yoga philosophy, Finding the Midline: How Yoga Helps a Trial Lawyer Make Friends and Connect to Spirit, a book sharing the lessons of yoga as they apply to everyday life.
In addition to teaching yoga, Bill is also a trial attorney and has handled a number of high profile cases, including litigation against the tobacco industry, and has traveled all over the United States, Europe and as far away as Japan on behalf of his clients. In 2005 Bill received a Masters of Arts Degree in Human Development which included an emphasis on behavior and meditation, and a fourteen credit hour study of how the philosophy and practice of yoga can integrate with modern behavioral psychology.
Bill has combined his unique background as an author, a successful trial attorney, highly-qualified yoga instructor, and graduate studies in human development to create Finding The Midline, Ltd a company helping individuals, businesses and other organizations find greater meaning and connection at home, in the workplace, and in the community.
In July, 2013 Bill released a book on yoga philosophy, Finding the Midline: How Yoga Helps a Trial Lawyer Make Friends and Connect to Spirit, a book sharing the lessons of yoga as they apply to everyday life.
