Christine Eisenschmidt

Yoga Teaching Styles: I still embrace Bob and Ki’s “eclectic” style of yoga, although in the years that followed I have leaned toward Kali Ray’s TriYoga.
Bio: I discovered yoga on public television in 1969 with Richard Hittleman’s show, “Yoga for Health.” I was immediately drawn to the practice as I learned some basic yoga principles and practices. Yoga classes were few and far between in those days, but when I did find a “live” classroom to attend, I noticed that the same fundamentals I learned on TV were present in all the yoga classes. The serene feeling I had after a yoga class bonded me to the practice. For the next twenty years I raised a family and focused on everyone else, but was dedicated to a healthy lifestyle through diet.
In the early 90’s, when my four children started to leave the nest, I rediscovered yoga, which was becoming more popular and readily available. My practice became serious and I was invited to begin teaching. It was a great boost to realize that I could still build a strong and flexible body my mid 40’s and receive the bonus of stress relief at the same time. My formal yoga teacher training was completed with Bob Smith and Ki McGraw of the Hatha Yoga Center in Seattle in 2001.

Abby has been practising yoga for over 8 years, teaching for 3 and is currently working towards her C-IAYT in Vancouver, B.C. Abby’s vision is to spread awareness regarding the practice of yoga and how this can help others flourish in life. While educating her clients on physical movement patterns, she hopes to share techniques to de-activate your nervous system through yoga that can be applied in everyday life. She knows how powerful this practice can be to take others our of the overthinking, fight or flight state and into the restful state of the parasympathetic nervous system. By educating others on yogic philosophy, we can learn how yoga has the ability to bring us into the present moment of our consciousness. Living with strong anxiety since a teenager, Abby feels this is necessary in today’s fast paced society. Classes with Abby are focused on modifying to your own abilities while listening to the body and honouring what it needs in that moment. Abby wants to help you create a toolbox of simple ways to feel better everyday.

I knew then that I needed to become a yoga teacher and take it to the military. I did just that soon after graduating from college. I have worked with various military service members from around the globe. I also became a Yoga Alliance CE Provider so I could mentor/teach other yoga teachers.

Denise Divine Lapides

Yoga Teaching Styles: Hatha in the Krishnamacharya lineage, including Vinyasa, Yin, Restorative, Prenatal, Chair, Therapeutics, Tantric and Alignment/Functional based
Bio: please see my website page: About. divinelightyoga.com/contact
“I have been preparing for this moment my whole life,” I realized during my first yoga experience. Following Savasana, the shift inside of me was palpable, the light was now very bright. A very clear understanding, without words, was obvious. This is my path. I had just turned 40 and had been seeking for this feeling since I was 15 after a near death experience. Still raising kids, navigating huge life changes, debating grad school, unsatisfied and unmotivated I was on fire and fully charged now. I had taken some yoga classes four years prior, but this time, Shakti had awakened in me, she was ready to rise and lead me. I trusted her.
The path of Yoga gave me every thing I had been seeking, a full physical, mental, emotional and spiritual connection to what I had felt disconnected from within me. I worked hard, I practiced and studied like my life depended on it, because to me, it did. What were the immediate side effects?
The real teacher is the Divine, Life and our experiences. I bow to that.
