Michael French, RYT-500

Mike was "needled" into going to his first yoga class by a fellow bus passenger. Little did he or the other passenger guess how that would change Mike's life. Mike's approach to yoga is to convey the fascination and mystery of the body that yoga embodies. The fascination comes from discovering the unique possibilities that each student manifests, as they are. The mystery is that every body is the doorway to the many layers of being human. Mike's approach is to lead students to experiencing existing patterns that can be transformed to open up deeper levels of energy, mind, and spirit. And he and his class have fun at the same time! He has studied under Erich Shiffman, George Purdy, Doug Keller, Paul Grilley, Doug Swenson, and received his 200 and 500 level training from Janice George of ShivaShakti Synthesis, at the Center For Wholeness.

Racquel Miller Graham, Yoga Instructor

A yoga student since 1975, Racquel Miller Graham has been teaching for over twenty years, as a movement therapist and yoga instructor. She is a Certified Iyengar Yoga Instructor, studying regularly with the Iyengars in India, with a B.S. in Physical Education and Dance and an M.S. in Sport Psychology. Developed over the past fifty years, by Sri B.K.S. Iyengar, this method of yoga emphasizes precision of alignment in the poses to nurture muscular and postural balance. Particularly unique to the Iyengar method is the use of props (walls, blocks, chairs, etc.) and individualized adjustments to facilitate healthy alignment and movement in postures.
Iyengar yoga is spiritual practice in physical form, and the absolute attention to precision and alignment give great depth, taking practitioner from the physical body to deeper levels of being. Alignment or “right action” learned in the body expands to alignment of “right action” in how we live (through practice of the yamas and niyamas) and finally align with our true nature.
