Evelyn discovered yoga after suffering a back injury in 1993. As her interest in yoga and her practice deepened, Evelyn found herself seeking to share yoga with friends and family by providing community classes for several years. In 2001, she completed her Teacher Training and Certification in Prana Yoga with Robyn Ross and Dr. Jeffrey Migdow at the Open Center in NYC. Evelyn’s interest in working with individuals with health challenges and her desire to bring wellness into her own practice brought her to study Restorative Yoga with Cheri Clampett and Arturo Peal at Integral Yoga Center in NYC. In 2006, she completed 650 hours of training at Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy Center and received certification as a Yoga Therapist and Practitioner.
Evelyn has been practicing yoga in a variety of styles during the last 16 years and she recently began teaching Yoga in Maplewood.
