Rita James

In 2009, Rita came to the path of yoga as so many yogis do—on the heels of a personal struggle and in search of a way to balance her spiritual and material life. What she found in her practice and teaching has led to not only a profound transformation in the way she views the world, but more importantly, she has learned the value in slowing down by creating a unique experience using restorative yoga as her platform to aid the nervous system in resetting itself.

aaron klein

Born and raised in Leucadia with parents that are both swamis of the Kriya Yoga lineage, Aaron grew up immersed in yogic culture. In his early 20's, he traveled to Costa Rica to study under Don and Amba Stapleton at the Nosara Yoga Institute. His classes challenge you to explore the boundaries of your mind/body while listening intently to the feedback your body provides.

monique minahan

Monique started practicing yoga in 2008, six years after her husband died, and credits the practice of yoga with taking her from surviving to thriving. She believes that everything is sacred and nothing is sacred, including yoga. This allowed her to step away from her roots in Anusara and Iyengar, and explore yoga biomechanics and movement science. This radically changed her practice and her teaching.

Libby Carstensen

Creating a strong container to hold change is the first step. Libby found Kundalini, the yoga of awareness, as the answer. In 2017 she studied with Kia Miller and completed Kia’s Radiant Body teaching program. Libby is also studying Kundalini as taught by Yogi Bhajan at the Kundalini Research Institute. Her classes bring the yoga of awareness as a catalyst to remove inner barriers as we increase our own radiance. It’s perfect for beginners and anyone wanting to tap into their own inner lighthouse. You’ll be challenged, you’ll find strength you didn’t even know you had, and you’ll find your ability to navigate life improves.

Her practice, both physical and spiritual, has been an anchor for her throughout the rollercoaster of life. Introduced to pilates six years ago, Anne discovered a new way to explore and deepen her asana practice.
