Yoga
Instruction
Yoga is one of my life's true passions and I love what it has
contributed to my holistic health and spiritual growth. I strive
to bring in as much delight and depth to teaching the art. I have been
practicing yoga since 1998 and received my first certification as an
instructor in 2001. I am currently registered as an "Anusara
Inspired" instructor and am close to completing my second
certification as a fully Anusara Certified teacher. My classes are life-affirming
and full of energy, passion, inner work, radiant light and a lot of
fun. They are designed to inspire and create optimal health on all levels
of our being as we refine our human experience and awareness of our
unbroken connection to the Divine.
Anusara Yoga has been the strongest influence in my teaching since I
started studying it in early 2004. It is
a heart-felt style that emphasizes making an intimate connection to our innate goodness
and brings us into alignment with our body, mind and spirit for radiant
living and the delight of Supreme Consciousness playing through us. The name Anusara translates as flowing with grace
as we follow the Supreme within and around us. My teaching reflects this open and soft approach to a non-competitive
and deeply spiritual practice. In each class we look to
experience the radiance of Spirit and find unique and creative ways to
go deep and have fun at the same time. By exploring
heart-oriented themes we recognize that life's challenges are
also life's blessings; allowing ourselves to feel deeply and live
passionately we learn and grow. We move through the poses using the body as a tool to connect with the deeper layers of our
being and shine from the inside out. My instruction centers around
strengthening self-awareness
and compassionate living, both on the mat and off. Classes are
taught around the capacities of the students present so all body types and individual conditions are honored.
I look forward
to seeing you in one of my classes soon.
