It is with great love and thanks to Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and my primary teacher, Lewis Rothlein that I practice and share what I can about Ashtanga Yoga. I bow to them both each time I come to my mat. I am also deeply thankful to all the other teachers who have nurtured my practice and brightened my path, especially: Karyn Stillwell, David Swenson, Rolf Gates, and more recently...Lauren Gaines.
My life, my practice and my teaching have also been shaped by the wisdom of Patanjali, Jiddu Krishnamurti, Rumi, Tagore, Pema Chodron and the Buddha. Their teachings continue to inspire me and deepen both my experience and sharing of yoga.
My beautiful children, George and Connor have been my very best teachers, because they have taught me how to love.
I currently live in Sanford, Florida and teach Ashtanga Yoga at variety of local studios including Full Circle Yoga in Winter Park, In Balance Yoga and Pilates in Lake Mary, Florida as well as at Aiguille Rock Climbing Center in Longwood. I am fortunate to have also had the privilege of teaching at the Citrus Club in Orlando and continue to teach as a guest instructor from time to time.
The Ashtanga Yoga classes that I teach are open to both novices and experienced practitioners alike. I aspire, in every class I lead, to provide a guided class that offers articulate verbal direction, demonstration, as well as hands on adjustments that are both meaningful AND compassionate.
In addition to the group classes I currently teach, I am also available for instruction in both private and corporate settings. Please feel free to send me an e-mail at: ashtangadebra@yahoo.com. I hope you'll stop by my new website www.yogabydebra.com. (coming soon) you can find my teaching schedule there as well as the scoop on exciting events at LULULEMON!
I'll look forward to the very sunny day when our paths cross! Until then...
DANCE, SING, FLOSS AND TRAVEL.
Above all... DO GOOD THINGS!
Namaste,
Lululemon Lover and Ambassador,
