Dragonfly Yoga Studio

As an active person her whole life, Alana stumbled onto yoga in 1998…a time in her life when she was tired of going to the gym and tired of the mundane exercise program she had been doing since high school. At her very first yoga class the sign outside the door said, “welcome home.”  Little did Alana know that at the age of 21 she would be introduced to a new way of living.  In 2002, she began to practice teaching to senior citizens. Her first student was 93yrs old. Then in 2006, Alana became certified as a Kripalu Yoga Teacher/RYS 200hr instructor. Since then, she has taught yoga to people of all ages and enjoys every aspect of teaching chair, beginner, intermediate and power yoga classes. “Yoga has taught me that everybody is different and with the right modification anyone can do yoga. It’s so important to continue to move and explore both mind and body. Once you stop using it, you risk losing it.” Alana’s classes tend to be challenging and she likes to give students opportunities to move and explore their bodies. Some of her happiest moments in class are watching clients work hard at poses, then finally get to that “aha” moment--when the body and breath make a connection.
