A seeker's path, from curiosity to lineage.
Ever since high school, I've been attracted to Eastern philosophy and the Buddha. I didn't know it was a lifestyle I could live myself.
That changed in 2010 at a shamanic retreat in Brazil: I started practicing yoga, went deep into the practice right away, and never looked back. Vipassana meditation retreats and my first teacher training in India followed, and then I found my teacher, Sri Dharma Mittra. He was in my hometown of New York City all along.
Since then I have completed my 500- and 800-hour teacher trainings with Sri Dharma and traveled the world to share the teachings. I lead a playful, graceful and strong style of hatha raja yoga, with delightful variations of poses, profound breathing techniques, chanting and deep relaxation.
Dharma Yoga, from Sri Dharma Mittra
On December 1, 2015, Sri Dharma Mittra initiated me into the lineage with the name Yogi Ram Om. I'll honor this name and do my best to live up to it.

What students say
Jerome’s yoga training is a profound experience, blending the essence of yoga with music, chanting, and drums. Each class is a journey into the heart of yoga, where the rhythms and melodies enhance the spiritual depth of our practice. The music not only energizes our bodies but also resonates with our inner selves, creating a meditative and transcendent atmosphere. Jerome’s approach to incorporating chanting brings peace and connectedness, elevating the practice into a holistic and deeply spiritual experience. His classes are ideal for anyone seeking to explore the more profound and harmonious aspects of yoga, together with the power of music.
From the first minutes with him I understood there was something magic about his way of sharing the knowledge.
Jerome is one of the more passionate and devoted yogi I ever met, he’s working hard to help all the seekers he met and he can easily establish deep connection with the people. That’s why if you meet him once, you gonna follow him for the rest of your life.
His way of teaching is simple and playful, even when he’ll push the class out of comfort zone, with more advanced asanas or a lot of mantra chanting, you’ll follow him trusting more the process and yourself. I feel blessed to have met him in this life! Thank you for your devotion Jerome!
Jerome ofrece una práctica completa y auténtica, fiel a las enseñanzas de su maestro Sri Dharma Mittra, compartiendo desde el corazón, es honesto y te da muchísimas herramientas para seguir la práctica aunque acabes de empezar... sus clases son las más completas que he podido realizar, muchos pranayamas, canto de mantras, parte energética que se funde con la práctica física de asana, salgo renovada siempre de sus clases, Hari Om boss❤️ Carol y José
I have been going to Jerome lessons from early 2022. Jerome is very charismatic but at the same time humble. I love the passion he puts in his lessons, his style of teaching, and his own style of yoga he develop after his many years of experience with the practice and also teaching. Thank you🙃🙏
Estuve de formación durante 6 días con el maestro Jerome. Fui sin expectativas y solo sabiendo que es alumno de Sri Dhama Mitra, por lo tanto confié completamente sobre el nivel de experiencia a la que asistiría.
Fue un trabajo diario intenso. Cultivando el hábito de la práctica de yoga (pranayama, meditación, entonación de mantras, asanas, filosofía, kriyas, etc.), con la seriedad y responsabilidad que se requieren para el aprendizaje, pero sobre todo con el espíritu de "santosha" y que me hizo disfrutar aún más.
Infinitamente agradecida por tenerte de referente como maestro, Jerome✨️
Jerome is an exceptional yogi instructor who offers a profound learning experience unlike any you’ll find in a traditional studio. His teachings delve deeply into the multifaceted aspects of yoga, extending well beyond physical postures to explore the true nature of reality through yogic philosophy. With Jerome, you’re not just practicing yoga; you’re embarking on a transformative journey of mind, body, and spirit. He is highly recommended for anyone seeking a more meaningful and impactful practice.
