Instructor Spotlight - Atlanta

We met up with a few CPY teachers to talk about why they love yoga, how they stay grounded outside the studio and their advice to yoga newbies. 

Kathleen H.

• What's your favorite pose and why? I love flowing through Chaturanga Dandasana; I feel strong, rhythmic and powerful.  After a long day I'll find myself smiling the first few times because it brings me life!

• How do you remain grounded outside of the yoga studio? I surround myself with authentic, genuine friends and family.  I spend as much time as possible outside, laughing, and exercising. 

• What is your advice to beginner yogis? Take on new challenges with open arms and enjoy the journey.

Ben S. 

• In 10 words or less describe why you love yoga: Challenges me in ways I have never imagines, physically & mentally.

• How does your practice make you stronger? Sheds away layers of what is not serving me to create space for what will better serve myself and my life. 

• When life happens and you can’t get to your mat, what helps you find steadiness? I try to meditate every day if I can. It is like a hard reset for my head. I absolutely love it and love the way I fee afterwards.

Kristin S. 

• In 10 words or less describe why you love yoga: Yoga is my space to explore inside and outside my body. 

• How do you remain grounded outside of the yoga studio? Getting outside in nature; walking, running, hiking with my dogs.

• What is a mantra or intention that you frequently come back to in class? Inhale peace, exhale all the rest.
