Background
Cassandra has been a student of yoga for approximately 10 years. Her passion and joy for the practice of yoga and her desire to share its transformative benefits with others led her to delve deeply into the therapeutic applications of yoga and become a Kripalu-certified yoga instructor.
Approach
Cassandra's approach to yoga is based on the tenet that yoga is a practice that is accessible to everyone, regardless of age, body type or size, or level of flexibility. Yoga is not only a wonderful form of exercise, working one's entire body, building a firm and toned physique, but also a practice that builds confidence and has healing, transformative benefits on the entire being-- mind, body, and spirit. Whatever reason people initially come to a yoga class really does not matter. The practice of yoga invariably creates better health, a stronger body and mind, and ultimately more joy in one's life.
Teaching Style
Cassandra’s teaching style effectively blends accessible and challenging instruction. With a down to earth and light-hearted approach, she facilitates a safe, secure and nurturing atmosphere, conducive to self-inquiry and total health.
