Welcome from Therese

Hi All…and lets start with “thanks for reading”.  :)

A Jack of all trades…
A master of none…
The school of living life, until the first time I rolled out a mat! Initially beginning my practice as yet another way to “exercise” and change my physical body. I chose the Hot 26 (Bikram) to begin my practice. Let’s just say I drank the KoolAid and was hooked!! Line and sinker! It took no time at all before I realized this was something so very different.

As my practice became such an important part of my daily life, I felt a pull to take it elsewhere — to another level. I spent the better part of 2 years searching for the right training. A few bumps in the road — Superstorm Sandy, for one, left my family displaced and took my residence away from my home studio Hot Yoga Rockaway Beach. This made me realize even more that a very deep part of me needed to do this.

Fireshaper is where I landed and completed my 200hr ryt plus some additional certifications. I COULD TEACH !! WoW!

My love for teaching superseded my nerves of being a new teacher and I dove right in. I taught anywhere and anytime I could. Here is where I could learn to “master” my skills. My dedication to my students and wanting to give more led me to more training and certifications. Moving out of my comfort zone, I began my 300hr ryt with Laughing Lotus. It is there where I discovered that I actually “geek out” on learning. The history, the lineage, the spiritual background was so much more than I had realized. and my passion grew.
I always dreamed I could share this love, this passion, this fire with those willing to receive it.
My wish is that the passion that fills my soul, will breathe through me a Fire that ignites yours!
I can not wait to see you on your mat!

Inspiration

In the bend of a pose, in the bend of emotion, and in the bend of a service we find the stability we need for our life.

I bend so I don’t break…

I bend so I don’t break promises.

I bend so I don’t break confidence.

I bend so I don’t break anyone or anything.

I bend so I don’t break emotions.

I bend so I don’t break home.

I bend so I don’t break relationships.

I bend so I don’t break my career.

I bend so I don’t break routine.

I bend so I don’t break my mind.

I bend so I don’t break my conscience.

I bend so I don’t break my motivation.

I bend so I don’t break my body.

I bend so I don’t break my soul.

I bend so I don’t break my path.

I bend so I don’t break my dreams.

I bend so I don’t break my yoga.

Why do you bend?
