“To love a place is not enough. We must find ways to heal it.”
― Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass
Teresa Heit-Murray is a Registered Yoga Teacher. She completed her 200 hour Pure Yoga training in 2010. Teresa is completing her work to become a RYT-500 through the Prairie teacher training. She continues to increase her knowledge and has a concentration on therapeutic yoga. She has completed a thesis on Yoga with Scoliosis to help in her own path of healing as well as others.
She is the founder of the practice of Yoga with Scoliosis. This is a group class method of teaching individual with scoliosis how to understand the a-symmetry in their bodies and how yoga can help re-align and strengthen the muscles around the spine. This way of healing combines the work of Dr. Loren Fishman and Elise Miller.
Teresa helps to create a community of support around the practice of yoga. It is so healing to be on the journey with others. For too long, I myself was alone with scoliosis.

Everyone has some degree of asymmetry in their body. If the asymmetry is in the spine, practicing yoga with intention and knowledge of scoliosis can help students build strength, give pain relief and be more confidence in their understanding of how the body works.
Students will be led into poses to strengthen the spine and support areas of the body for healthy posture. We will work to reduce compensatory patterns that create asymmetry. Ideas around the latest health, science, how the brain works and current yoga teaching around scoliosis will be included along with yoga practice.
Creating community and support for each other is another key component.
All levels are welcome, from new yoga students to teachers.
FEE: $36 for drop in/class
