Rebecca Sisson

E-RYT 500

Rebecca has been practicing and studying yoga for over 20 years. She turned to yoga to heal her body after years of long distance running had taken a brutal toll on her. The physical challenge of yoga first attracted her to the practice, but it’s the peaceful and meditative qualities that keep her coming back. This practice has brought a sense of balance, love, empathy and humility to her life that she is eternally grateful for.

Rebecca brings a contemporary approach to the traditional practice of Ashtanga yoga. Her teaching is deeply rooted in anatomy, encouraging alignment and safe exploration of postures, bringing dynamic and creative sequences to her classes. She strives to awaken the adventurous spirit on the mat, awakening a sense of playfulness and grace.
