Patricia's Story

Workshops

Patricia is ERYT500 with a strong, diverse educational background. She has completed over 4000 hours of anatomy, kinesiology and physiology. She is currently finishing a training through Duke University for Integrative Medicine with Yoga Therapy. Patricia has a deep appreciation and love for all of the styles of yoga she has trained in.

Her vast knowledge of the anatomy has enabled Patricia to blend the best aspects of 5 very popular yoga styles 
and create her own, known as "Fusion Yoga".

A complete listing of Patricia's trainings are listed below:

 ♥ Anusara teacher training with John Friend, Betsey Downing, Todd Norian, 
    Desiree Rumbaugh, Jordan Bloom and Ken Van Rowen
 ♥ Ashtanga teacher training with David Swenson and Bryan Kest
 ♥ Iyengar teacher training with Adil Palkhivala, Dean Lerner and Tias Little
 ♥ Bikram & Hot Yoga Certification programs with Jimmy Barkan, Lisa Goodwin and Bea Raydo (Tejas)
 ♥ Teacher training with Doug Keller of Doyoga 
 ♥ Tantric Philosophy training with Douglas Brooks and Bill Muller

All of this training has given Patricia an ability to identify specific challenges in each of her student's bodies. Part of the beauty of "Fusion Yoga" is that it is not a "one size fits all" style. By using a combination of techniques, alignment principles and breath work Patricia offers each student specific guidelines and ways to modify postures to help heal injuries, strengthen their bodies and forge a deeper connection between the mind, body and breath. Patricia specializes in hip work and offers workshops specifically focused on the hips. She is currently writing a book on yoga practice for the hips. "Fusion Yoga" is a work in progress which continues to grow and expand on a daily basis.
