Anna received her 200hr and 500 hr yoga teacher training from Tias Little at Prajna Yoga with whom she studied therapeutic yoga with a focus on anatomy and physiology, yogic wisdom and Zen meditation. Within her training at Prajna she also received her certification in SATYA, a floor-based somatic movement practice focused on releasing the parasympathetic nervous system and unwinding habitual tension held in the body.
In 2019, Anna began studying and practicing the methods of the Functional Range Systems developed by Dr. Andreo Spina . She received her certification as a Functional Range Conditioning Mobility Specialist (FRCms) and a Functional Range Assessment (FRA) practitioner. She has also taken the Kinstretch Level I Certification Course.
Additionally, Anna was a licensed massage therapist for 10 years. Her education in anatomy and myofascial release, most specifically Anatomy Trains with Tom Meyers, have greatly impacted her knowledge and practice as a teacher.
With skillful sequencing and creative use of props Anna teaches clients and students non-traditional ways to strengthen their joints, increase flexibility and move towards a more open and peaceful place in their bodies and mind. Her classes are inspired by her daily journey through the rhythms of life and living in the human body. A typical class will include meditation, pranayama (breath work), and therapeutic asanas (postures) with the goal of becoming more mindful, grounded and aware of the inner workings of the body.
