"Yoga for People Who Think They Can't Do Yoga" WHAT'S THE SCOOP ON HANNAH?
I began studying yoga in a California community college class with Alice Rocky in 1994. A lifelong dancer, I immediately recognized the physical potential of yoga for strength, opening, and alignment.
As I explored the practice, I discovered the healing potential of yoga in the emotional and spiritual realms, and was hooked.
I received my teaching certificate at the White Lotus Foundation in the summer of 2003. Since that time, my keen interest in learning has led me to study with teachers from various approaches to yoga whom I feel are "walking their talk."
In 2004, I was certified to teach Relax and Renew® restorative yoga--the yoga of resting deeply-- by Judith Hanson Lasater. In 2005, I attended Judith’s first Advanced Relax and Renew® training. I continue to study, apprentice with and assist Judith several times a year.
I now specialize in working with beginners and those with physical limitations, concentrating on creating a no-drama, safe, and laughter-filled environment for each person to find the yoga that best fits her or his needs. My teaching is the humbling, grounding, guiding practice in my life, and I count each student in my lineage of teachers.
Along with an energetic, active yoga practice, I emphasize restorative yoga in every class, providing students with much-needed time to rest deeply and remember to go inside and experience their inner lives.
When I'm not studying or teaching, I enjoy salsa dancing, hanging out with illustrious Downtown Vallejo locals, and raising my son, Timothy.
