Anne Taylor holds two 200 hour certifications. Anne completed her first certification at the Kripalu Center before going on to complete a second certification and subsequent advanced training in mind/body therapeutics with Bo Forbes PsyD. Anne continues to study here in NY with Genny Kapuler and Deborah Wolk in the Iyengar tradition as well as Ellen Saltonstall in the Anusara tradition. Anne's teaching experience is varied and extensive and ranges from gyms and studios to schools, non-profits and medical facilities. Anne's classes at the Yoga Room are characterized by slow flow alignment based vinyasa sequences designed to promote exploration of patterns of holding within the body and mind. Attention is given to habitual patterns/samskaras in stillness and in movement. Anne seeks to vary the sequences as a means to support the needs/requests of individual students and to keep the practice fresh and new in the tradition of the beginner's mind. Classes consistently include a short opening meditation; music and/or chanting may or may not be offered as part of the practice.
