My understanding of yoga has changed many times When I was in my twenties I was mainly interested in the rd limb of yoga Asana I was practicing according to the book “Light on Yoga” by BKS Iyengar and only performed asanas that I could do easily I had no other guidance In my late thirties I started taking classes in New Yorks yoga schools and was very confused about Vinyasa style yoga which was very different from the Hatha that Ive read about and had self–taught myself from the books Vinyasa classes were upbeat and sporty with a lot of Chaturangas and quick transitions between the poses But eventually I discovered a Hatha yoga instructor in my area and stayed in her classes for several years visiting the Vinyasa classes sparingly From this run I noticed a shift in lifes perspective and overall feeling of wellbeing Later in my life Ive developed an integrated practice where anything goes as long as my body likes it and craves it I am way in my fifties now and learning to embrace other limbs of yoga as well since all of them Yama Niyama Asana Pranayama Pratyahara Dharana Dhyana and Samadhi are important in achieving success in yoga In I participated in "Life of a Yogi Teacher Training" of Dharma Mitras School of yoga to deepen my own practice   ​ In I took another Teacher Training course in the yoga school East+West and became certified Yoga instructor In Ive accumulated teaching hours both online and onsite and received E-RYT title  On December completed Jason Crandells  hour Yoga Teacher Training course in Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga  and became hr Registered Yoga Teacher Я родилась на Дальнем Востоке в СССР Живу в Нью-Йорке с года Была профессиональной танцовщицей много лет Открыла для себя йогу когда мне было лет и некоторое время практиковала вслепую по книгам В Нью-Йорке начала посещать студии йоги и пробовать различные её направления Больше всего мне подходила классическая традиционная Хатха-йога Стиль Виньяса поначалу показался слишком поспешным но потом я к нему пристроилась и поняла его достоинства Стиль Инь тоже не сразу завоевал сердце но потом я поняла какое значение имеет фасция соединительная ткань которая оплетает мышцы и как позы Инь-йоги её растягивают  В своей личной практике я использую всё что показалось полезным:  Виньясу — днём Инь — вечером Хатху — иногда под настроение ​.
