Richard Garrison

yoga instructor

Richard Garrison began teaching after having been involved in a serious accident in 2007.

Working safely back to pre-accident levels of ability helped him cultivate an appreciation and deeper understanding of proper technique to avoid and work with injuries.

All students will be able to participate and contribute to classes in meaningful ways. Rich has had extensive experience with various modalities of yoga but sites his training in the Anusara style as being the most beneficial to enhancing the experience of students.

Anusara was a hatha yoga system that emphasized alignment and a “celebration of the heart.” The lessons learned here and those from the Pranakriya style with Yoganad Michael Carrol are what he draws upon most during classes.

Participants should expect a mindful, challenging and enjoyable atmosphere in which to practice. Though alignment is emphasized the classes flow beautifully in a way that builds on those proper foundations.
