Evelyn started practicing yoga many years ago because of its benefits for the back and neck difficulties she was experiencing, and soon discovered that the benefits were far greater than just addressing her physical well-being. For Evelyn, yoga has become an avenue for self-knowledge, self-love, awareness and physical well-being. She has a Masters in Curriculum, with over 20 years in education teaching students and adults, becoming a certified yoga instructor was the perfect choice for her. Evelyn studied with Yoga Acharya Tej Monga, Anand Mehrotra and Judith Lasater. She received her 200-hour and 500-hour Yoga Alliance Certification through Namah Shivaya Yoga. She has complete 600 hours in Ayurvedic Counseling. Since yoga is very much a personal experience and one based on levels of ability, her endeavor is to teach to the needs of individual students by modifying poses. Her classes are designed for both newcomers and seasoned practitioners. Each class focuses on proper alignment and breathing techniques, with an emphasis on core body strength. Her goal as an instructor is for all of her students to experience the full benefits of yoga.
