Check back soon for Erin's bio!

Judy has knowingly walked toward the light since 1975. She leads yoga classes when the certified teachers are unavailable.

Judy started the Inner Light support circle to share the gems of my truths and the techniques that have helped her to let go or accept those things that were holding her back. The support circle was intended to help us achieve our life goals in a joyful, peaceful (as possible) and loving way. This class may return to the schedule with sufficient interest.

These teachers taught classes at Hayfork Yoga Center for several months.

Raelyn has lived in Hayfork since 2000 and has offered education in natural childbirth.

Born and raised in Alabama, during Zach's years in Hayfork valley he experimented with various types of exercise and physical fitness routines. In the end, the TACFIT program made the most sense. TACFIT is a tactical body weight protocol designed for firefighters, first responders, elite military and law enforcement. These happened to be the people trying to be their best, without letting injury keep them from helping others. Neurologically-based range of motion exercises focus on healthy movement and restore stress-induced negative mobility adaptations. Zach was certified by the creator of the TACFIT program as a level 1 field instructor. The TACFIT protocol can be performed anywhere at any time with no equipment.

Kitty taught belly dancing in our local area for many years, though she may be retired from teaching now.

"Love, ultimately, Is intentional. It is, at its core, a personal relationship that takes practice. Just like everybody else in this world, I want and need more of this Love in my life, and Yoga helps me show up to the party."

Certified to teach, Lucas graduated 500 hours of yoga teacher trainings. He studied through the late Larry Shultz (a longtime student of Patthabis Jois), as well as through the teaching partnership of Nicki Doane and Eddie Modestini (longtime students of both Pattabhi Jois and B.K.S. Iyengar).

Bringing into the Studio a careful understanding of different people's bodies, Lucas strives to teach from his own personal practice to awaken the desire for each student to develop a more rewarding personal practice inside and outside of the Studio. Inspired by All peoples Who walk the Path with Heart, Lucas was grateful to share his experience of Yoga at the Hayfork Yoga Studio. He is continuing his study of herbal medicine, Ancestral Arts/Indigenous living skills, Ayurveda/TCM/Qi Gong.

After being introduced to yoga in her early teens, Keri began teaching Ashtanga Yoga in 2002. She later trained with Shiva Rae, and incorporated Svroopa Yoga into her teaching schedule. Keri attained her Associates degree in Massage Therapy & Integrated Health Care and is a recognized Licensed Massage therapist. Keri traveled to Salt Lake City, Utah to study Aromatherapy & became a Essential Oils Educator through Young Living. In 2005 she completed her 500 hour Yoga Teacher Training at Kripalu Yoga Center in Lenox, Massachusetts and is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT).

Kripalu Yoga is a modern school of yoga that reflects a synthesis of traditional approaches, incorporating the five aspects of Yoga into one (Hatha, Raja, Kundalini, Bhakti and Karma). The key to the practice lies in understanding Prana or Breath as a link between body, mind, & spirit. Kripalu Yoga is rooted in stillness. Yoga postures, combined with breathing techniques and a focused yet compassionate attitude during practice, are used as vehicles for finding and releasing energy blocks. Paradoxically, when you intentionally put your body into Yoga postures you frequently produce more tension than before. Kripalu Yoga will help you to identify these tensions & teach you to release them. Let go....let go....let go!

Pilates strengthens the muscles that support the spine (neck, shoulders, abs, hips & thighs) to bring balance into the body. Pilates helps to realign the spine in order to decrease tension, increase flexibility & strengthen the body from the inside out.

Khira has been a yoga practitioner for many years and has taught for 6 of those years. She completed her first teacher training at 7 Centers in Sedona, AZ, which taught Khira the importance of integrity as well as non-invasive, therapeutic yoga practice. Her knowledge has been expanded through attending numerous retreats, workshops and classes worldwide, exploring many different styles of yoga (vinyasa, Iyengar, ashtanga, Bikram, kundalini, and kriya) as well as meditation, Ayurveda, cranial sacral therapy, Thai massage and reiki. Before coming to Hayfork, Khira hosted and taught retreats in her house in Thailand and at resorts throughout Bali.

She has a natural inclination towards Esoteric Mythology, Shamanism, Health, Tribal Instruments, Flower Essences, Runic and Osho Zen Oracles, and the healing properties of Crystals.
