Jaye
Jaye has been involved within the field of teaching for over 14 years. Formerly an educator of the Montessori Method for young children, she found herself “called” to India this past summer where she taught English in a village primary school. Her interest in Eastern culture and philosophy along with her passion for yoga inspired her to recently complete a yoga teacher certification in the beautiful, volcanic region of Lake Atitlan, Guatemala. In her vinyasa classes, Jaye presents a series of asanas representing both the physical and spiritual practice of yoga. Drawing on her previous experience with Iyengar yoga, proper alignment is reviewed and modifications are demonstrated to assist all levels. The postures are balanced with simple breathing techniques as well as an overall awareness of our bodies energetic systems providing a basic framework for self-exploration, healing and rejuvenation.
Steve
Yoga brings balance to my life, a union of body, mind and spirit. I am blessed to have wonderful teachers that help me practice the eight limbs both on and off the mat. I try to carry the Ashtanga tradition in class, but the yoga is the teacher one breath at a time.

Kyle's respect and passion for the practice has presented him with a whole new appreciation for life which he is eager to share with his students. His vinyasa classes are styled around the Ashtanga Primary Series with a unique and entertaining platform for sharing his personal stories and endeavors as they relate to daily life both on and off the mat. He sees yoga as a discipline that arises from clarity of intention and commitment, and is available to all who are willing and ready to explore its many benefits.
Shauna
I committed to my yoga practice after realizing the healing properties yoga can bring to your life. I felt compelled to teach yoga to share this life changing discovery. My teaching method is an Ashtanga based hybrid vinyasa influenced by the many wonderful teachers I have been blessed to learn from with an emphasis on the fun and inspirational side of the practice. I am a flight attendant by trade so it has given me the unique opportunity to practice throughout the world and to draw from these experiences. But my home town studio holds a special place in my heart and I am honored to be a part of this wonderful growing yoga community.
