| Introduction | I began my own personal yoga practice in 1995. Today, I am certified in Hatha Yoga and Prenatal Yoga. In 1995 I moved to Westchester County where I began to teach full time in gyms and colleges, corporations and not-for profit organizations, as well as to private clients. I always wanted to be involved with an organization that was based on holistic intentions and a sense of community. Yoga Haven opened in 1998 and has grown to double its size. Yoga Haven offers over 50 classes per week, including multiple levels, prenatal and postnatal and restorative yoga, along with monthly workshops. Serving over 2000 students per month, Yoga Haven has over 22 teachers on staff and provides massage and acupuncture. I am thrilled with the community Yoga Haven provides, not only for the students and staff but, for myself as well. I have expanded my understanding and practice of Yoga by studying a range of styles including Anusara, Ashtanga, Iyengar, Kripalu, Viniyoga and Jivamukti yoga leading to a teaching practice that combines flow, breath and alignment, with a sense of lightness and laughter. My pleasure is directing and teaching Yoga Haven’s 200 hour teacher training yearly. |
