I am a 2008 graduate of the teacher training program at the Yoga Center of Columbia, and am certified at the RYT 200 level through the Yoga Alliance. I started practicing yoga in college to help deal with the stress of classes and to get a bit of exercise. Since then, it has been an incredible journey! Through yoga, I have gained greater strength, balance, and flexibility... and I don't mean just physically! I have had the honor to study under many great teachers in a variety of traditions including Kripalu, Anusara, Kundalini, Iyengar, and Vinyasa. Each of my teachers have been a blessing and have uniquely inspired my own practice and fueled my passion for sharing yoga.

As an instructor, I want to help you to live your own yoga! My number one priority is your personal well-being, so optimal alignment and an optimistic attitude are key elements in my classes. Oh yeah, and I promise we will have FUN!

I encourage you to develop your own personal practice (whatever that means to you), and to be curious about yoga! Please check out my resources page for some of my favorite websites and books, and feel free to contact me with any questions or if you'd just like to talk yoga!

Om Shanti,
Flissy
