LIANNA HEPTING

TEACHING STYLE: I hope to provide well rounded classes that help each student more deeply connect with their unique breath and movement. Inspired by the teachings of Krishnamacharya and B. K. S. Iyengar, I try to ensure every class has a powerful warm up, balancing postures, inversions, and a slow closing with deeper stretching.

INSPIRED BY: Books and podcasts on nutrition and longevity; art: specifically painting and sketching; and movement combined with music: dancing and yoga flows in particular.

FAVORITE POSE: Triangle (Trikonasana) and Scorpion (Vrischikasana) are tied!

A RECURRING THOUGHT: See what you can learn from it.

FAVORITE QUOTE:
“So do it. Decide.
Is this the life you want to live?
Is this the peran you want to love?
Is this the best you can be?
Can you be stronger?  Kinder? More compassionate?
Decide.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
And decide.”

A NON-NEGOTIABLE: Health, expansion, curiosity, respect.

MOUNTAINS OR BEACH: Mountains all the way!!
