Yoga with Linda Gordon

What You Will Experience When You Join Her Class

"I decided to make a change today. I am attending my first yoga class. I have looked into several possible locations that I can submerge myself into this new endeavor. I chose Insight Awareness because of its reputation of having a highly respectable quality instructor. My research showed the yoga instructor, Linda Gordon, is a Certified Yoga Therapist (RYT200) and Yoga Alliance registered with over 200 hours of formalized training. She studied with numerous master teachers worldwide and continues to expand her knowledge base by attending workshops throughout the year. Linda is not only a RYT200 but she is also a Registered Nurse with a Bachelors of Science, RN, BSN. This was a great combination to have for an instructor because of all of my physical ailments and limitations that I might encounter during the yoga class. I felt safe with Linda's background.

"When I entered the yoga studio, I was greeted with a warm and friendly smile from Linda and the students. I immediately felt at ease. Linda's class felt well balanced. She took the time to center ourselves and to feel grounded before proceeding further. The remainder of the class consisted of breathing techniques, (Pranayama and Kriya) yoga postures (Asanas) and guided and unguided meditation. The atmosphere was relaxed with the scent of incense and the sounds of bells and a head massage to complete the holistic practices. It was a multi-sensory experience. The class was a combination of beginner and intermediate students, therefore, Linda paid special attention in demonstrating the yoga poses for various levels and she utilized props to help me ease myself into the poses.

"Overall, my experience was balanced and so was my soul. I loved the feeling that I had when I left the class, which followed me throughout the remainder of the day. I not only left feeling balanced but I also felt empowered and surrounded by positive thoughts and affirmations for myself.

"It was apparent that Linda has an abundance of knowledge regarding yoga such as the therapeutic use of yoga, adjustments, and chakras in assisting me to delve deeply into meditation in order to view my inner beauty."

...The experience above is what I intend for each student that attends my yoga class. My desire is for each student to be able to "hear the song and melody in their heart"

Sincerely,
Linda Gordon
