JOYCE LASCH, Anusara-Inspired Yoga Teacher, leads a Level One Yoga class on Thursday evenings at 6:15. She completed her 200 hour teacher training here at Jacksonvilleyoga. This intensive year-long program has opened more doors for Joyce, both in her personal yoga practice and her approach to teaching. Her studies have also brought more balance in her life opening her body and mind to new possibilities.
Joyce has been a fitness instructor for over 18 years , teaching classes around the Beaches for the last 18 years. She holds several certifications from national fitness organizations. Joyce initially pursued yoga training through the fitness industry and has taught yoga classes in local gyms for over nine years. In 2006, Joyce started studying Anusara Yoga with Joyce Savitz.
Joyce has loved movement since her early days in dance classes and particularly enjoys the energy generated in a group environment. She was first attracted to Anusara Yoga due to the therapeutic value of physical alignment. She has learned that the practice of these alignment principles creates a safe place for the body, mind and spirit to be uplifted to a higher vista! She loves how Anusara combines the openness and softness of heart with strength and stability.
Join Joyce on Thursday evenings at 6:15.
