Teachers

Deanna Evans, E-RYT, LMT
For the past thirteen years Deanna has devoted her life to the healing arts, yoga and meditation. As an Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT) and certified meditation instructor, she hopes to inspire students to work within their own creative process, to utilize the sacred teachings of yoga, but ultimately to trust their own innate wisdom and truth. Deanna’s background includes classic Hatha, Ashtanga, Iyengar, and Kundalini Yoga. Her meditation and spiritual practice is a culmination of years of self-inquiry as well as drawing from the teachings of Satya Sai Baba, Amma Karunamayi and Paramhansa Yogananda. Deanna encourages her students to approach their practice with a deep awareness of their physical and subtle bodies, and to face challenges on and off the mat with Suka (ease and joy) through the vehicle of the breath, a still mind, and an open heart. Deanna is also a nationally certified and licensed massage therapist.
