Tuesday Teacher Feature this week is @kpeppelman : Kathy started yoga at a time of transition in her life. After raising her four sons, she felt restless, irritable and discontented and sensed a hole in her soul. Yoga became one of her tools for transformation along with releasing unhealthy lifestyle choices, alignment with Divine Will, service to others, radical acceptance, present moment awareness, prayer and daily gratitude practices. She now devotes herself to helping oth...ers get free and find deeper meaning through engaging in life instead of escaping. In 2014, partnering with Naed Smith, she founded a Prison Yoga Project at Keystone Correctional Facility to bring weekly yoga, mindfulness and recovery meetings to the residents. She continues to serve on the Board of Directors to bring compassion and services to the needy. For several years, she has lead yoga sessions as part of the Annual Women’s Recovery Retreat in our area and serves as Retreat Chair for 2018. Her passion is to use yoga as a conduit for the healing power of love to address all issues from self-esteem to addiction. The unity of the class provides the energy for all growth and healing, allowing participants access to greater intuition and guidance from their Higher Self. In this safe space, her genuine, nurturing method helps break through self imposed limitations and fears to move into surrender, trust and joy. She is trained in Hatha and Vinyasa with 40 hour certifications in each. Kathy’s teaching Virtual Basic Yoga on Tuesdays at 10:30 am EST currently for @justplainyoga and would love for you to experience her class. Today is her birthday so please wish her a blessed day! #yogateacher

Tuesday Teacher Feature continues with @rock_science ! Lindsay started her practice in 2010 and chose to begin her teacher training journey at Just Plain Yoga in 2017. She used the time to learn and create a safe space where students feel comfortable and challenged. Since completing her 200RYT in March 2020, she’s taken time to give back to her community, teaching free outdoor classes in Harrisburg with the Yoga by the River program and Exercise Change. She loves challengin...g people with unique transitions, creative flows, and lots of balancing and twisting, taking inspiration from Vinyasa, Hatha, Ashtanga, and even Pilates classes. When she’s not teaching, she can be found around Harrisburg with her husband and pups hunting down sour beers from local breweries. She’s occasionally a professor of intelligence analytics and (also) occasionally a merchant at local markets selling @greenstreetmakes soap and other handmade/upcycled items. You can catch her Virtual Vinyasa with a Twist Mondays and Wednesdays 4:45-5:45pm. #justplainyoga #yogateacherlife #tattooedyogini #supportsmallbusiness #womenownedbusiness #hburgmade #harrisburgpennsylvania #centralpayoga #yogateacherlifestyle #asanarebel #womanentrepreneur #vinyasalove #vinyasawithatwist #vinyasaflow #vinyasa #yogaandmobility #bethechange #giveback

Tuesday Teacher Feature comin’ at you today with @sherrazav : Sherra began teaching yoga in 2011 and is passionate about sharing yoga with people who could be hesitant to join a class because of self-perceived limitations such as weight, inflexibility, age, or injury. She feels strongly about helping make yoga accessible to anybody who wants to try it, and loves to assist them in developing a supportive and effective yoga practice of their own. ... Sherra's yoga practice began in 2003 after a friend suggested that it might help her back injury. Conventional treatments had given some relief but still left her with considerable pain and dysfunction. She was uncomfortable taking a yoga class because of her injury and because she had a non-standard-yoga-body so she began learning yoga in weekly private sessions with Tina Stroh rather than in a group class. She saw some improvement immediately which led to a year of regular private sessions and a consistent home practice. She recovered sufficiently after a year and enjoyed yoga so much that she became interested in doing group classes, first attending team taught class Big Yoga at Just Plain Yoga studio. She continued in yoga classes with Carrie Fleming @cafleminghbg , and Ashtanga style with Tina Stroh. She earned her 200 RYT teaching certification through Just Plain Yoga. She also studied extensively with certified Iyengar teacher Dale Hails from 2009 until Dale's retirement in 2015. Sherra has completed workshops with Beryl Bender Birch @berylbenderbirch , Edward Clark, David Williams, Corina Benner @corina_benner , and several others. She enjoys working with people one-on-one and in group classes, and is continuously amazed at how much love is created in yoga practice. Sherra teaches Gentle Yoga every Thursday at 5:45pm. She also facilitates our famous Chat & Chai the last Sunday of every month at 5pm. Both of these events are currently virtual and EST. #yogateacher
