We can only truly know ourselves when we access our deep quiet center. 

Betsy (500hr Yoga TT) has been practicing yoga for twenty-five years and teaches a mix of her favorite things. Expect a range of techniques including vinyasa, kundalini, mantra and sound, guided meditation and balancing pranayama practices. Increasingly drawn to the transformative power of Kundalini, she infuses her classes with these potent practices. She also weaves in influences of Life Force Yoga, with its ability to address anxiety and depression. Yoga and Meditation have been her lifeline, and she loves sharing her collection of transformational tools.
