Harmony Yoga
HistoryI began teaching yoga in 1984 under the name of Lifedance Yoga. At that time there was only one other instructor in the Spokane area. I started teaching in homes and church halls and eventually found a location on the lower South Hill where I opened up a formal studio. By 1999 classes had grown to the point of needing a larger location. I visualized my next studio, and within a week it materialized! I was able to design the interior exactly as I wanted and specifically for the purpose of Yoga. Harmony Yoga at its present location was launched. Over the past 19 years I have employed a variety of instructors, classes have been added, students have come, gone, returned and stayed! In 2012 I directed our first RYT-200 Teacher Training, and have directed and taught 7 trainings to date.SpecialtiesWe offer Yoga classes and workshops for all bodies! Whether you like a fast or slow practice, beginning or intermediate, we offer a wide variety of styles and levels for all adult ages, including Vinyasa Flow, Hatha Basics, Yoga for 50+, Gentle Yoga, Yin Yoga, Kundalini Flow, Restorative, Pre-Natal Yoga, and Pilates. As well, we offer RYT-200 & RYT-300 Teacher Trainings. Our mindful, alignment-oriented approach, integrated with the philosophy of yoga, emphasizes quality instruction within each of the unique styles offered. Our goal is to offer you practices that support and create ease, joy and harmony in your life, both on and off the mat. Our compassionate style of teaching includes individualized instruction, with manual adjustments to facilitate a deeper understanding of the postures. We use props when necessary for support, and to help teach and understand particular actions. Moving at a comfortable pace, we draw our students' attention to the breath, with the invitation to deepen the awareness within each posture. Integrated with the philosophy and the many practices of yoga, the path of yoga becomes a journey toward knowing oneself at the deepest level.
