Sarah Chandler  
  Practicing yoga since the mid 90's, Sarah was inspired by a friend who thought she could benefit from yoga while she was pregnant, since then she has explored many different types of yoga and has enjoyed them all.

When asked what she loves the most about yoga, Sarah loves how much we can benefit from doing our practices when we keep a routine, the changes our whole selves go through when we stay in the moment and when we work on what is in front of us, a whole new heightened of awareness comes to us.  She believes our bodies love exercise.  They love good, healthy, whole foods and when we take care of our bodies, our bodies take care of us.

Erin Joosse  
  Erin has been teaching yoga since 2000, and in her classes, you can expect a flowing, mindful style of hatha yoga. She emphasizes breath, healthy alignment, and creating a balance of effort and ease. One movement often flows into another, or you might flow in and out of one repeated movement that prepares the body for more intricate variations of yoga poses. Meditation, focused breathing, and deep relaxation are always included, as well as the reminder to be mindful and present in each moment.

Erin is great with beginning yogis as well as advanced practitioners, and each class she teaches is fun, challenging, and unique. In her class, you will be encouraged to work at your own pace, and begin to cultivate a deepening awareness of your own body and mind.
