Yoga For Every Body 

Lynda worked ten years in an Engineering environment before wanting to learn a trade and eventually own her own business.   Because she also wanted the flexibility of giving time to her three wonderful and busy children, she became a licensed Cosmetologist.  Although she enjoyed the personal aspect of that career for nearly 13 years, the physical strain of the job began to take its toll as she experienced constant pain from both carpal tunnel syndrome and neck and shoulder tension.  She also battled the pain of plantar fasciitis from standing all day. When the prescribed wrist supports and orthotics offered minimal relief, Lynda decided to try yoga as a therapeutic release.  

Lynda began studying and teaching traditional styles of yoga in 1997.  Two years later she began attending Svaroopa classes regularly and developed a Svaroopa yoga home practice. The overwhelming change in Lynda’s physical and mental health proved to be the impetus for her present path of educating others in the benefits of yoga. In 2006 she entered the Svaroopa® Yoga Teacher Training program and in 2007, became a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, the national registry of yoga teachers.  She continues her training and study in Svaroopa® Yoga -- and has 700 hours of Svaroopa Teacher Training thus earning her Certified Svaroopa® Yoga Teacher (CSYT) credentials as well as being certified as a Svaroopa® Yoga Therapist (CEYT).  

Svaroopa® Yoga has become a way of life for Lynda, and she is excited to share her growing knowledge with you.  Lynda is confident that her students will be able to receive both the physical and emotional benefits Svaroopa® Yoga has to offer.
