Title
Awakening Self: Yoga Classes, Workshops, Counseling and Retreats
Description
She began her studies of yoga in 1991, at the same time she was earning her Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology at JFK University in Orinda, CA. Instantly, she sensed a calling to teach, and in 1993, while practicing counseling as an intern, she also began teaching yoga.
Connie’s classes are inspired by yogic wisdom and the process of inner exploration that she has found so valuable through her training as a counselor. She integrates these principles in a way that allows each student to make their own discoveries, find ease in the body, and peacefulness in the mind. She is very eclectic in her approach, but mainly draws upon the Iyengar style for alignment and individual adaptation, the Vinyasa style for its flowing movement and emphasis on the breath, and yogic philosophy to apply the experience to our daily lives.
Her greatest influences have been her long-time teacher, Mark Horner, and his teacher, Shandor Remete, who developed the Shadow Style of yoga. She has also been strongly influenced by Judith Lasater, whom she did Restorative and Prenatal yoga training with, as well as Rama Jyoti Vernon and Diane Valentine. She completed an 18 month teacher training at Moksha Yoga Shala in Walnut Creek with Mark Horner, and has done numerous trainings and workshops with other highly respected teachers over the last ten years.
