Mary Corbin has been a student of yoga since 1989 when she began her exploration with Rodney Yee in the Iyengar tradition. Her teaching also reflects the influence of intensive studies with Sarah Powers, who instills the power of deep observation and listening; and David Life and Sharon Gannon, who inspire us to truly live our yoga with deep commitment to the classical teachings of the eight-limb path. A devoted practitioner of Ashtanga in the tradition of daily Mysore practice as taught by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, her vinyasa classes weave together her passion for yoga, creative work as an artist, curiosity for new and challenging adventures, and deep connection to nature and its many wonders, into a fabric of compassionate, joyful presence. Drawing from the common threads of the Iyengar and Ashtanga traditions, classes emphasize proper alignment and breath awareness with sequences that challenge, promote balance and health, and invite exploration. Deeper inquiry into the philosophy of yoga is explored within the asana practice.
