Michelle Hougardy. Yoga on the Roam.

Yoga on the Roam is a simple phrase meaning Yoga is a practice on and off the mat, anywhere, anytime, at the moment you take the inhaling breath and exhale acknowledging and showing up to the present moment: you are in your Yoga.Background (short version):Starting with training in dance (jazz, ballet, tap), I stumbled into Yoga and naturally fell in love as so many other amazing teachers have as well. The love of movement in rhythm is passion! So, I began studying various Yoga techniques and practices at 13 years old. Past studies have included 40hrs in Mindful Meditation with Cyndi Lee, Power of Awareness Training with Jack Kornfield & Tara Brach, 320hr independent study in Restorative Yoga with Aurawellness Center, an independent 50 hr. study in Vipanasana Meditation, and the journey continues today.Many experiences weaved into and through all the studies also guide and strengthen and nourish each element I learn and share forward. I am a firm believer of Practice what I Teach & Teach from Experience.Today:My focus and primary teachings are private classes, personalizing to the specific needs and levels of each unique person. I am not against teaching group classes, but will do so only on a beginners level at this time. I am an advocate for Yoga props being used by all levels, and this is always the first lesson with any student along with meeting their breath where it is.~I want to be very clear what I offer and where I stand~I am not a fixer, but my toolbox is full & constantly growing/accumulating, and I love sharing all the tools with guidance, love, and grace. Together, we will learn which tools fit your current path and create the toolbox to keep them handy. We will grow together, creating a practice you love to weave into your own daily living and dive as deep into the practice as your curiosity wants to explore.My favorite lesson learned and to pass on: We can always, at any moment, Begin Again. and Again. and Again.
