Ashtanga & Vinyasa Yoga teacher Rebecca Saline

I began practicing yoga in 2001 at the urging of my sister. It was a life-changing experience. The moment I stepped into the studio, I felt something special. I had done some yoga before, but this time, something was different. I felt a deep sense of ease, of being truly present in the moment and connecting with my body on a deeper level. I enjoyed the physical challenge, but what really made it transformative was the feeling of peace that I hadn’t experienced before. The yoga instructor had a presence that was intoxicating and captivating. Her energy was filled with a peaceful and joyful energy that was contagious and alluring. I felt comforted and inspired. Immediately, I became passionate about yoga as an instrument for healing and integrating the body and mind.

Over the next 2 years, I studied with various yoga teachers in Philadelphia, Boston, and New York while also participating in teacher-training and workshops. In 2003, I became a certified yoga instructor.

As a child, I was an avid dancer and dreamed of being a dance teacher. Building upon my dance background, I use the flow and rhythm of dance as an instructional tool in my teaching.

The building blocks of my style are creative sequences where breath, intention and mindfulness work in concert with movement. My goal in every class is to create a practice where greater awareness is achieved through the use of asanas (physical positions) and conscious breath. I encourage my students to honor their bodies and minds; to be kind, gentle, and compassionate with themselves. To me, yoga is simply about being yourself and developing a deeper connection to your true essence, the Self. It is about spending time in a state of presence, intention, and self-love.
