MEET CARRIE
I am a Yoga Alliance 200hr RYT in Chopra Signature Yoga. I teach Hatha vinyasa yoga in the ancient Vedic tradition as a science, merging body, mind and spirit. My classes incorporate breathwork, mantra and mudras, classical postures and meditation. I am also a certified instructor of The Bar Method, leading several weekly classes in barre, strength, cardio and flow in both the San Mateo and Palo Alto studios.
I’ve been practicing yoga for over 30 years, originally honing my form-focussed Hatha and Iyengar Yoga skills at the Center For Yoga Los Angeles. I studied for over a decade at Golden Bridge in Hollywood, expanding my style to incorporate Kundalini.
When Deepak Chopra and Sarah Finger began their yoga certification program at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, I knew I had found the right program to further my teaching skills and solidify my knowledge of yogic philosophy. Through my studies, I’ve gained extensive knowledge of Ayurveda, Anatomy and Sound Healing, all of which I incorporate into my personalized classes. Ever-expanding my commitment to deep inner healing and the yogic arts, I most recently completed a Sound Bath certification with Guy Douglas and Simona Asinovski of the Sound Healing Symphony. I’m currently mentoring with my favorite Katonah teacher, Kyle Miller.
