Ananda Baron

Her yoga journey began like many other Westerners; she practiced to relieve stress and stay active while raising children and working the corporate grind. After her first class she was hooked for life. She spent many years studying the hot yoga 26 & 2 sequence, Ashtanga primary series, and traditional Hatha before she was encouraged to share her practice with others as a guide. She is a student of Gopi Mata Devi Dasi as well as a graduate from the Academy of Vedic Arts in Maharashtra India. Ananda offers a variety of classes at Om Grown Studio. She regularly volunteers with the Hospice where she offers spiritual care to the dying and their loved ones. She enjoys traveling to India and other parts of the world, vegetarian cooking, forest preservation, and implementing Bhakti yoga into everyday life.
