YOGA -- pick your poison

Vinyasa -- Core Flow -- Meditative Yin -- Bikram

I used to really dislike yoga. Holding positions felt uncomfortable and my tight joints complained with every movement. As I began to dive deeply into my dance training however, I found myself in need of something strengthening, good for the joints, and helpful for the mind. As I began to return to yoga, actually tried to breathe along with the poses (I had always been defiant of being told when to breathe), I saw some truly astonishing changes in how I move and, more importantly, how I feel. After climbing through some of life's many obstacles and having yoga as a safe place to come back to I decide to get certified to teach so I could not only spread my appreciation for this beautiful practice but also further, deepen, expand my knowledge of my body and yoga itself. 

As I have not yet finished my certification, I can not tell you definitively what my favorite styles are to teach; however, my favorites to do myself are vinyasa flow and yin. Yin is especially close to my heart as I did some of it while a member of the Phantom Regiment Drum & Bugle Corps, an organization I love dearly and is to thank for my achievements as a dancer and most likely the development of my love for yoga.
