and the daily practices that bring the many layers of self into balance.

Gretchen has had the gift of learning from so many incredible and inspiring teachers including Indra and A.G. Mohan, David Swenson, David Garrigues, Dharma Mittra, and Edwin Bryant. The teachings have most importantly led to the gift of learning from within, through attention, listening, teaching, living, and simply being.

“Yoga is the teacher of simplicity, honesty, strength, and connection. It is the study of humanity and the relationship with all things, big and small. I am honored to practice and offer these teachings in my life daily and cannot possibly put into words the appreciation I have for this process. I look forward to connecting with you whether it be through breathing, stretching, meditation, philosophy, or any thought or curiosity that makes us who we are; human.”
