About Christ Centered Yoga ™
I believe it was prevenient grace that led me to first practice yoga in a church. Surrounded by stained glass as I practiced, I began to pray and meditate on the scriptural references found in each pane of glass. Adding breath and movement to the prayer created a powerful spiritual connection with Jesus Christ. I discovered that yoga was a beautiful way to worship God and thank Him for the bodies He has given us – bodies that are the “temple of the Holy spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:19). Longing to share this newfound praise and worship with others, I incorporated biblical study with the four components of prayer and a consistent yoga practice. What was once an idea became seven elements that created Christ Centered Yoga ™ - the fusing together of biblical study with yoga, which results in a uniquely soulful experience for the practitioner.
My desire is to share Christ Centered Yoga ™ with as many people as possible, so that others may experience the profound joy that comes from worshipping Christ in this unique manner. My classes, workshops and retreats are open to people of all faiths and beliefs. God’s grace is available for everyone to receive, none are excluded (Luke 17:16).
Christ Centered Yoga ™ classes, workshops, and retreats are available to students and teachers alike. The classes are taught at Gainesville First United Methodist Church in Gainesville, Georgia (northeast of the Atlanta area). The workshops are approved by A.C.E. (American Council on Exercise) and A.F.A.A. (Aerobic and Fitness Association of America) and take place throughout the country. The retreats are customized corporate or recreational and also take place wherever there is a desire for Christ Centered Yoga ™.
