A quad stretching, hamstring strengthening fun class with a dash of twisting. Some never-do-them poses we played with were ardha chandra chapasana, ardha bekasana and dhanurasana. (5/2/21)
My explorations in body awareness and my love for physical expression
have been present for much of my life. Over twenty years ago, I began my
official relationship with movement as a dancer and, fifteen years ago,
I began a widely versatile personal yoga practice. My experience has
ranged from the raucously physical to the most delicately subtle. As a
teacher, I try to find a middle ground where the active body can help
illuminate the illusive mind and spirit. I am interested in working
deeply with principles of skeletal, muscular and energetic alignment,
while also sharing the rich mythical, spiritual, and historical lineage
that yoga asana descends from. I received my 200hour training in 2014
with Alison Alstrom at The Loom School of Hatha Yoga, and I am on a
perpetual journey to become a more knowledgeable teacher and humble
student. Currently I am studying asana with Todd Jackson and anatomy
with Renee Sills and am in the process of attaining another 300 hours of
teacher training here in the Advanced Study Program at The Bhaktishop.
The time I spend off my mat is usually spent painting, biking and
teaching art and movement at the PHAME Academy.
