I always say "I don't work for a living. I relax for a iiving."
I appreciate the feedback from participants about how much they enjoy the yoga sessions and find them helpful.
I started learning yoga with a teacher from India in 1967 and took the teacher training program with him in 1970.
I have been teaching yoga since then at various different settings, including community centers, adult education programs, senior facilities, etc., as well as at my own studio, The Well Street Station, 62 Mt. Auburn St., Watertown, where I have been since 1983. www.wellstreetstation.com, 617-923-1440
I am also Certified as a Kripalu Yoga Teacher and a Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapist.
