Gail
Keeley has been studying and practicing yoga since 1993. She
received her teacher training in Hatha yoga from Barbara Benagh
and Erich Schiffmann; she began teaching in 1999. Gail draws
on many yoga teaching traditions to find the approach that best
serves her students and emphasizes alignment, use of the breath,
and the mind/body connection in her teaching. Her knowledge
of Aurveyda also informs her teaching.
Gail
continues to study with Barbara Benagh, Erich Schiffmann, and
other master teachers and sees herself as teacher and learner,
a mix that keeps her yoga teaching and practice fresh. She hopes
her students learn patience, persistence, self-acceptance, and
the joy of yoga through her example. She is enchanted by nature,
and sees the oneness of all living things reflected in nature
every time she looks. |
