YOUR TEACHERS (Listed in Alphabetical Order)
[Andi]
As a teacher and fitness coach for over 20 years, it is Andi’s greatest joy to hold retreats at stunning locations on this beautiful planet of ours! After years of studying and practicing many healing modalities including functional fitness, traditional yoga, yoga therapy, and massage therapy, she feels one of the best ways to serve is to bring people to a place of tranquility where they can take a pause from their everyday life. Retreating provides an opportunity to advance your practice, eat delicious and nutritious food, and connect with like-minded individuals in awesome locations like Greece, Sonoma, Calistoga, Thailand, Costa Rica, Haramara in Mexico, Litibu Mexico, Playa Viva,Mexico and Beautiful Lake Tahoe
Andi’s passion and experience speak volumes. She is always looking for the next best fitness or yoga training, so she can share the most up to date information with her students.
[Dan]
Dan has been involved in the world of fitness from the moment he could walk. In fact, he probably ran before he walked!
He was a competitive soccer player most of his youth and into his adult life. Later he became a rescue swimmer with the Navy, which is no joke! All along the way, during his military career, Dan lead physical training classes.
After years of focusing on strength and speed, Dan realized he needed to find a way to incorporate some flexibility work into his program. This is when he found yoga…
After practicing yoga for 5 years, Dan decided take his yoga to the next level and went through his first Yoga teacher training. As a certified yoga teacher and a fitness coach, Dan knows how to push people to their edge, and yet compassionately recognize each individual’s limitations.
You will enjoy Dan’s humor and energetic personality each morning as he leads fun workouts!
[Gena]
Gena Foreman’s passion for yoga began nearly 20 years ago when she took her first class at the local gym. An avid runner and mountain biker she came to yoga to stretch and find balance as a full-time mom. The feeling of peace, quiet and strength she experienced after class started to weave itself into every facet of her life. In 2004, she completed her first teacher training. Her teaching style focuses on the awareness of conscience breathing, emphasizing core strength building endurance while finding the balance between effort and surrender. Gena encourages her students to listen to their body and honor where they are in that moment. She will challenge you to go to your edge, to find that inner place which allows you to grow. Gena is authentic, compassionate, and playful; students are nurtured, and individual needs are met.
[Genevieve]
Shortly after the birth of Genevieve’s second child she was invited to take a Yoga class. This was her first “real” yoga experience. Needless to say, it was love at first drop of sweat and she is eternally grateful to her friends that brought her to yoga that day. Because she simply said YES her life had forever changed! She soon moved on to Power Vinyasa falling more deeply in love with the practice.
Though having been an athlete and playing a wide variety of sports throughout life nothing spoke passionately to Genevieve the way yoga does. After finding yoga she felt as if I had just truly learned how to breathe. Yoga offers an outlet for removing stagnant energy, opening the heart and finding balance. It is a time to play, to let go, to be messy, to express and to be free!
Continuing further in the journey she became a certified through Yoga Instructor. She enjoys teaching both Vinyasa and Yin Yoga. Her goal as a teacher is to empower her students and help them find their freedom through yoga in a safe and nurturing space.
[Stacy]
Stacy’s love of yoga continues to grow as she observes the transformational effects a regular yoga practice has on students, community, and within her own life. “Strengthening the body is wonderful, but strengthening the body, mind, spirit, and our community brings healing and wholeness. In this place, anything is possible.”
Stacy embraces the Bhakti tradition. So, music and devotion play a supporting role in all of her classes. Bhakti is often described as the yogic path of devotion, emotion, love, compassion, and service to God and others.
In addition to vinyasa and yin yoga Stacy is also offers educational workshops focusing on “Practicing Kitchen Yoga” and the preparation of whole and living foods. She specializes in guided cleanses and offers private yoga sessions, nutritional consultations, and guided group cleanses.
