Amy

Amy is a 200-hour certified Hatha Yoga instructor, registered and insured with Yoga Alliance. She began her practice in 2001 with Rodney Yee videos recommended to her by a massage therapist. As her home practice grew stronger, she knew she needed a public class with a live instructor to help her with alignment and modifications. The first public class she attended was here at Yoga Yoga where she continued to strengthen and build her practice, all the way through Teacher Training in 2009. Amy is still committed to her practice and community at Yoga Yoga whether attending classes, working the front desk, or teaching.

Amy is available to teach through our Yoga at Work program in addition to availability for public group class and private or small group sessions. She also loves to lead yoga in the park when the weather is nice. Her classes range from restorative relaxation, to all-level friendly Hatha, and Hatha Flow or Vinyasa. In Amy's classes, you can expect to be challenged physically and mentally, balanced with enough rest for a calm that allows students to stay connected to the breath and help to ease the fluctuations of the mind. She encourages all levels and body types to try her classes and provides props and modifications as needed.

In her free time, Amy continues to practice and study yoga through readings, lectures, public classes, advanced trainings and workshops. She loves the outdoors, summer in Austin by the pool or the springs, traveling to tropical beaches, music, friends, her family and her cat Moko. In addition to teaching yoga, she has a B.S. in Chemistry from UT, and is a certified wine sommelier and open water scuba diver.
