| I began practicing yoga in 2000. In 2001, I was introduced to Sivananda yoga. Having found the style that I am passionate about, I quickly developed a daily practice. I look forward to my annual pilgrimage to the Sivananda Ashram in the Catskill Mountains, or if I am very lucky, the Sivananda Ashram in the Bahamas. When I realized that I wanted to share my love of yoga with others, I began teacher training. I achieved my first certification in 2006 and received my 500-hour teacher certification, from YogaLife Institute in Wayne, PA. I am registered with the Yoga Alliance as an E-RYT 200, RYT 500. I look forward to sharing my knowledge with my students, and continue to encourage them to challenge themselves without forcing. Always having them focus on the positive, I remind my students that yoga is about what you can do. Recognizing that there is always something new to learn, I continue to practice and study yoga on a daily basis. I have been fortunate to attend trainings and workshops lead by nationally and internationally renowned teachers Nischala Joy Devi, Edward Clark, Simon Park, and Doug Swenson. Namaste, Arlene |
