Autumn Bolin
I’ve been practicing yoga for about twelve years, and in that time I’ve explored different styles–mainly Bikram, Anusara and Vinyasa. Despite undulations in the physical practice of yoga, I’ve had a steady dedication to yoga as a way of life for many years. The depth of my practice intensified when I was on bed rest toward the end of my pregnancy and unable to practice the asanas. During that time I came to understand what my practice means to me: it’s not about holding an inversion for five minutes, it’s about appreciating the fluctuations of my body, mind, and spirit that allow me to learn from the ever-changing present moment.

Katie Brizendine Searching for ways to strengthen a broken ankle, Katie found Bikrim Yoga at 18 years old. She then moved to Vinyasa Yoga which quickly led to a love of Ashtanga Yoga. Unfortunately an old shoulder injury started acting up and the lesson of ego and listening to the body began. Her class is now an integration of many schools of yoga brought together to create a 50 minute midday energizing class. Her class contains mostly basic postures presented in a challenging way all the while maintaining a focus on the breath. Expect some flow sets of poses to energize as well as holding poses for several breaths for focus. Her goal: you’ll leave her class feeling physically challenged, mentally focused, and energized for the rest of the day. Instruction: * Energizing Yoga |

Steve Ilg
I started by picking up a book, LIGHT ON YOGA by B.K.S IYENGAR at age 15 when I realized my running coaches did not have a clue about stretching and I was already tight from running. On a purely physical level I have no choice but to do yoga after breaking my spine and smashing my pelvis in a mountaineering incident in 1982. Certifications include graduating with Honors; Mark Blanchard’s Power Yoga Teacher Training, Beverly Hills, 2001 and Senior Status Yoga Teacher, International Yoga Allicance.
