Open Doors Yoga - Easton

I took my very first yoga class at Open Doors in Easton, back in 2010. I remember very little of the class except for the very beginning, where the instructor taught me how to really breathe and then the very end, where in Savasana I learned I could really be. After eight years of focusing on my own practice, I realized that a) there was so much more I wanted to learn and b) I couldn’t keep it to myself any longer! I started the deep dive into teacher training, gaining my 200-hr yoga certification as well as a certification in meditation. And the next year, I went back for 300 more hours to become a 500-hr RYT certified instructor! Who knows where the path will bring me next! All I know for sure is that the journey will never end as I continue to explore the layers upon layers of what yoga has to offer. We are truly learners in this lifetime! The practices of yoga - not only the physical postures, but meditation and the mindset of being - have brought me to a place where I feel light-hearted, free, and grateful. And I now see that every breath we take is an incredible opportunity to practice this thing called life.
