Yoga is not how well you can perform a pose or how good you look..that is ego, not yoga. It is using the poses to find that which holds us back from reaching freedom, healing, and strengthening and finding peace and happiness inside our heart...finding our "dharma", or our life's purpose.
It is not the destination, but rather the journey...
Anyone can do yoga....anyone!
About Paula
My name is Paula Petri. I am a Registered Yoga Teacher, a Yoga Therapist, a Pilates Teacher,a Reiki Master and I am training as a Shamanic energy practitioner.
As a graduate of Feel Your Best Yoga Teacher training school, I carry the same philosophy that Yoga is for everyone, and not just for those who are physically flexible and free of injury or medical conditions. I have a strong background in safety, proper body alignment and modifications and adjustments for people with various levels of needs or experience.
I incorporate various styles of Hatha yoga. Hatha yoga is the physical practice of balance and opposition; working with effort and ease. My main styles, through FYB training is Iyengar, Viniyoga and Ashtanga. I also include a variety of other styles including Kundalini and Ananda Yoga.
Iyengar yoga was founded by BKS Iyengar. This type of yoga is slower paced and alignment focused, using props to both modify a pose and also to deepen it.
Viniyoga yoga was founded by T.K.V. Deskichar. This type is individualized,and therapeutic carrying a spiritual emphasis. It supports learning pranyama (breath) before asana (the pose).
Ashtanga Yoga was incorporated by K. Pattabhi Jois. This style was derived from the yoga sutras "8 limbs of yoga". It is usually very physical, and sequenced.
I begin by teaching gentle yoga to teach the body how to open, the mind how to focus and the spirit how to connect. The student's body will gradually respond and become stronger and more flexible. The student's mind will also become more focused and the student will have more control over the body using the mind body connection
physically, emotionally and spiritually, the student will feel connection and openness. In addition, the healing begins.
Once the healing can begin, the student becomes a part of their own healing process, while strengthening their mind, body and spirit.
All students advance at their own pace and their own levels, listening to their bodies while being guided.
Yoga therapy is designed to help those with specific injuries, diseases or conditions physically, mentally and emotionally, through Yoga poses, pranyama (breathwork), Yoga philosophy, Pilates, Myofascial release, Tai yoga techniques, Reiki and other complimentary therapies.
I am an Usui Reiki Master, a practitioner of Angel Reiki and a Chios Energy II Practitioner. I am continuing on in the study of Earth Medicine Shamanic Energy Training with Amy Wilinski of Goldenlight Healing and have done some minimal study of Shamanism with Jose Luis Herrera. All of these are forms of subtle energy healing.
Everything has energy and carries a vibration. Often, we are imbalanced. We store stress, traumatic events, and other heavy energies in our bio-energy field. When this is ignored, it affects our mind and body,manifests on a physical level, thus affecting our health.
My goal is to work with my clients to open up these blockages to achieve a healthier state on all levels, promoting healing and wellness.
Enrich the lives of others, empowering them, and the healing begins.
...the student becomes the healer.
