Connie
|
Connie has been on the yoga path since 1999, when she felt her muscles relaxed and her mind calm after finishing her first yoga class. Her practice consisted of various styles until she met Michel Besnard (her first Ashtanga teacher), with whom she started daily practice and completed a Teacher Training. A few years of practice with Michel ground her mind firmly on the Ashtanga path.
Over the years, Connie has also studied with Alex Medin in Hong Kong and learned traditional Pranayama from Sri O.P. Tiwari. To both teachers, she is eternally grateful. Since 2006 Connie has travelled to India annually, primarily to practise Ashtanga yoga with Sharath R. Jois (grandson of Pattabhi Jois) at the K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute in Mysore. She feels greatly honoured to have become an Ashtanga Authorised Teacher under Teacher Sharath's guidance.
Yin Yoga and meditation are an important part of Connie's 'rest time', as she believes that a healthy body comes from good "yin/yang" circulation. She has also found that her knowledge of Anatomy & Meridians helps her daily practice.
