At first, it was more of a physical practice to stretch and strengthen and with time, began to slowly shift into a quieting of the mind. I noticed that when I practiced yoga, there was more time spaced out between each thought and I was able to limit my focus on my breath and movement. Wanting to know more about this ancient practice and facilitating a way for others to feel as I first did led me to a teacher training. My goal as a yoga instructor will always be safety in the body first. With the use of intelligent sequencing I am able to do this to prevent injury. I carry the intention to guide students in an opportunity to create space in the mind and body to enable a connection beyond the physical body and what is tangible. I follow a quote from Seane Corn, "If they trust you with their bodies, then they can trust you with their hearts".
