| Yoga Therapy I have been a yoga teacher and a massage therapist for over 30 years and have also been a professional dancer. I have a deep and long term interest in the biomechanics of the human body and it’s healing through deepening body awareness. I have also worked therapeutically, teaching classes and privately through massage and yoga for 20 years and most recently have become impressed by the effectiveness of the Anusara Yoga's Universal Principles of Alignment in helping people to successfully heal themselves through yoga practice. Iris has studied Therapeutics with Anusara's founder, John Friend and Anusara Teachers Desiree Rumbaugh, Sarah Joy Marsh and Hanneli Francis. Aging has also been my teacher. I was developing low back and hip problems. I allowed my pain to take me on a healing journey... I gratefully found Anusara Yoga and a therapeutic set of alignment principles. This exploration helped me to find inner body balance, ease and liberation from my low back discomfort. Recently, I spent nearly a year and a half in the U.S. Virgin Islands, St. Croix, working as a Massage Therapist at the Buccaneer Hotel's Hideaway Spa. My passion with re: to the healing arts has been reignited, particularly toward Thai Massage. I am currently studying and practicing this form of Therapy in conjunction with Yoga in my Private Practice. I'm traveling to Thailand in January 2009 to deepen my study and spiritual understanding of this ancient tradition. I am fascinated by the magic healing presence available within us all. I particularly enjoy helping my clients and friends develop a home yoga practice that will support their taking more responsibility for their wholeness and addressing their unique challenges through a proactive embrace of the physical body in daily yoga practice and ‘living it’ awareness. I am also technically equipped to provide you with a personalized yoga DVD to inspire your home practice. |
