Brenda Flemming has moved here from Colorado as an established Iyengar teacher. Her transition into the Hawaiian Life Style is a wonderful, refreshing experience.
She comes to Hilo with an open heart, honored to share this most respected knowledge. Brenda has studied with many Senior Iyengar teachers over the past 30 years, she gives her respects and appreciation for the lineage and knowledge. The brilliance and authenticity of her main teachers; Manuoso Manos of San Francisco Gabriella Guibilaro of Florence, Italy along with her travels to India with the Iyengar Family, have profoundly touched her soul and infused her teachings.
Description of Course:
Through this course of study we will deepen our understanding of the Yoga Lifestyle of Cultivated Human-ness and Eco-minded Consciousness while developing and supporting Super Hero qualities.
Strengthening our spines, working towards a balanced body and base foundation encourages the untangling of our nervous systems. These benefits are reflected in emotional health, open-mindedness and heightened energy levels, allowing true Aloha Spirit to be plentiful in our lives.
Brenda’s daughters Rita (28) and Mary (24) have been raised in Yoga Life-style, they both are trained in the Iyengar Tradition. They will join classes and assist when their schedules allow. Our goal is to teach and encourage the simplistic knowledge of moving our joints with balanced actions; thus enabling a life time of use with less wear and tear.
Removing the aches and pains from ones body can be a slow process de-pending on the amount of accumulated acids in the cells. Bringing in vibrant, sattvic, living foods can assist in a more alkaline chemistry, allowing our bodies to return to a balanced state of less tightness, stiffness and pain.
“It is our birth right to develop a strong spine and experience flexibility balanced with strength.”
We are here to assist you in incorporating what you learn into a simple home practice, that you love and enjoy; developing habits for the best version of your authentic self. When stepping into this course we inspire you to bring the 8 fold path of Patanjali Yoga into your daily life.
Brenda has made a point of studying other traditions of Yoga and welcomes all levels of students into an Iyengar class. She is available for workshops or privates, for those who prefer to work individually.
