Introduction	My introduction to yoga was primarily for rehab to an injured shoulder that was affecting all areas of my life. At first, I was only aware of the physical benefits of the practice, but 8 years later I have come to realize that yoga keeps me, my family, my relationships and my attitude balanced. My past is from an athletic background in which I played competitive basketball, volleyball and ringette. I am also and avid water skier, downhill skier and skater. I also studied musical theatre in college (singing, dancing, acting) which where all improved because of the yoga. I am an ISHTA yoga teacher ISHTA is an acronym for the Integrated Science of Hatha, Tantra and Ayruveda and a sanskrit word meaning individualized or personalized. Recognizing the uniqueness of the individual soul, Ishta yoga recognizes that every individual needs their own unique practice that will best address their own needs, development and self-awareness. ISHTA Yoga embraces elements from a variety of styles and seeks to help its students discover the exact blend of postures, breathing and meditation techniques necessary to bring out their full potential.
