I began attending yoga classes at the YMCA in Baton Rouge Louisiana where I was living at the time. With regular practice, yoga not only helped me regain agility and balance, the postures have also become a physical form of meditative expression. I have been practicing yoga since 1998, and it continues to be new and fresh as I experience new feelings and sensation in basic postures that I have been practicing for seven years. I have lead yoga classes for the YMCA system of Baton Rouge, Virginia Theological Seminary in Alexandria Virginia, and St. Mark’s and St. Michael’s Episcopal Churches in Little Rock. I am in the Barefoot Studio’s teacher certification program. I also have a degree in sociology and psychology, and a Masters in Divinity. < (back)
