He goes by the name of Dominic Romero. In truth, he is Sebastian Nikos, who was formerly known as Elijah, Jay, and Terrance. A skilled yoga instructor, Dominic is first and foremost a predator, moving around the country and claiming as victims lonely, married women as his stock-in-trade.

In "Psycho Yoga Instructor," Dominic instinctively gravitates towards his student Justine Grace, who is especially vulnerable at a time when she and her husband have failed in their attempts to adopt a baby. Justine's husband Tom is a workaholic and pill-popper, who has been distant and callous. At one point, Justine even suspects that he may be having an affair. In a moment of weakness, Justine kisses Dominic. And when she reflects on the moment and rejects him, it brings out his "toxins," resulting in a bout of insane, uncontrolled rage.

A strength of the film was in the yoga sessions. Those scenes could have been deadly dull, but the performers were extremely convincing in the exercises. But a shortcoming of the film was in the villain Dominic, whose Jekyll-and-Hyde character portrayal was not convincing, especially when Dominic's dark side emerged.

Surprisingly, the most interesting relationship was that of the husband and wife. There was an ebb-and-flow in the interactions of a couple who had been sweethearts from college. Their goal of rededicating themselves to their marriage and adopting a child overshadowed the scenes of the crazed yoga instructor who had intruded on their lives. Dominic's tag line of "I am a sprig" was overused and hollow, just as other platitudes he mouthed, such as "you have to process your feelings" and strive "to achieve your full potential."

For this reason, it was disappointing that the film's denouement was given over to the aftermath of Dominic, who managed once again to escape the long arm of the law. The stronger closing moments would have been the joys of starting the family that Tom and Justine had coveted and the miracle of learning that a new baby would be entering their lives.

Wonderful movie, Panos Vlaxos is excellent in the role of Dominic.

Very, very slow to get started. It took an hour to get anywhere. If you watch this movie, skip the first hour. To fill you in, in one minute, here's what you missed. A couple is having trouble adopting a baby. The man is a workaholic. The woman takes up yoga with a friendly yoga instructor. The husband and wife get suspicious of each other. Things get better and worse. Basically it went from 0 to 60 in 75 minutes. There was no gradual buildup to the psycho aspect. Of course it had a somewhat predictable ending. On the other hand there are always too many commercials. But I did like the Pepto Bismol commercial.
