9:00 am Yoga Basics COMMUNITY CLASS

Anna Gieselman
    Anna’s journey down the yogic path began in 2000 while she was living in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It was there that she met her primary teachers Tias and Surya Little of Prajna Yoga with whom she completed her 200 hour yoga teacher training. For Anna yoga is about bringing mindfulness into everyday life and discovering the abundant joy and peace that comes with that practice. In addition to teaching yoga, she is a licensed massage therapist and enjoys bringing her knowledge of anatomy and physiology to her classes. She aims to offer a challenging yoga class that incorporates zen philosophy, breath work and alignment focused asanas that will leave students feeling more grounded, alive and aware of the inner workings of their bodies.

Matt Borer
(Website)
    Matt is a full time yoga instructor mainly in the Ashtanga and Vinyasa Flow traditions. He likes to call his style of instruction "yoga mutt:" taking a little bit of information from every resource possible and integrating it into each class. With over 12 years of personal practice and over 6,000 hours of teaching time, there is a lot of experiential knowledge combined with compassion and patience to be had in his classes. You will laugh as hard as you work and will enjoy a wonderful sense of community, friendship, and self awareness throughout the process. When not teaching, Matt can be found here in Austin playing music, two-steppin, and rock climbing wherever there is available rock!
