This class is taught by:
Gina Cerbone
Gina Cerbone, 200 E-RYT, began her yogic journey in 2010 as she developed a strong connection to her Vinyasa practice which led her to a teacher training program with Delia Quigley and Denise Kay in July 2012.
For Gina, the Vinyasa quality of "moving mediation," coupled with her daily seated meditation, allows her to center herself when her world feels out of balance and lacking in stillness. Gina feels that Yoga has opened her eyes to see the person within, who she really is. Her practice helped her to find herself at a time when she felt lost. Gina believes that human nature is an important aspect of teaching yoga and a path to gain insight into others as well as one’s self by giving and receiving (sharing) the gift of yoga.

“If you are a pattern for the world, there will be nothing you can’t do.” — Lao Tzu
Prepare to challenge yourself as we move through deeper expression of poses. We will use static and dynamic movement to build and release energy, and to create the intense heat that fuels the powerful inner flame. Fire is the element of transformation, both creative and destructive; holding the power to shift your perceived limitations by burning off negative energy while encouraging your strength and endurance to come forth and guide you into the blissful light that you are.
