I work with inner city students struggling to find a place in an imperfect world. Realizing my students and I were on the same path I reached out to find some sense of tranquility and enlightenment for me. Yoga was introduced to me by Christine Burke and Gary McCleery of Liberation Yoga as a way of heightening my state of awareness, reducing my work related stress, and sending me on a path of health, healing, and inner and outer strength. Liberation Yoga has created a safe environment where new and old students alike can practice without judgment. I discovered more about myself in the time I?ve spent at Liberation Yoga then in years of alternate therapeutic environments. I?ve been able to pass on my enthusiasm for yoga to my students who now look for the opportunities to practice and they get a happier healthier counselor! I healthfully walked through the dark path of divorce and was able to maintain a positive sense of self through it all thanks in large to Liberation Yoga and their caring instructors. This is not your ordinary exercise place; Liberation Yoga fosters growth spiritually, mentally, and physically. I highly recommend this community to anyone interested in inner and outer growth. As a side note to those purely motivated by what they can see, I?ve lost 20 lbs, I?m free of pain, I?m running 6 miles ever other day, and I?m stronger than I ever was after years of weight training. All the results of my practice at Liberation Yoga!
Pros: Excellent Instructors, level variation, genuine concern regarding injuries and alternatives
