About Genny

Genny Kapuler has studied yoga since 1976 and has been teaching since 1980. She has studied three times in India with the Iyengar family. Her primary teacher here is Mary Dunn.

Before the birth of her child and before she began teaching yoga, Genny performed as a modern dancer; for many years she had her own company. She is also trained as an Alexander-technique teacher and is a practitioner of Body-Mind Centering.

In addition to her yoga training, Genny has studied anatomy extensively.

She applies this knowledge to her understanding and teaching of yoga, directing her students toward a deeper awareness in asana and pranayama through precision of alignment. Genny also uses the poetics of language to guide her students, and to create “a mind-state in the room that is gentle and focused.”

Through Iyengar Yoga, she says, students attain ever more precise alignment of the skeletal-muscular, organ, and nervous systems. Working towards harmony of body, mind, and spirit, they are able to move out into the world with more grace.

July 12-14, 2013 – Judi Friedman

JudyDescription

Summer at Heathen Hill provides the perfect setting to dedicate time to exploring your “self.” We will partake in leisurely morning asana classes that allow the time to play with the subtle aspects of “meditation in motion.” Using our bodies, supported by blocks, straps, bolsters, blankets and chairs, we will delve deeply into forward bending, back bending, twisting and balancings. After a restful mid-afternoon, we will gather for a restorative late afternoon practice that includes inversions and pranayama.

This workshop is for intermediate level practitioners who are dedicated to penetrating the surface of the rich practice of asana and pranayama. Please bring an open mind, a full heart and a learner’s inquisitiveness.

About Judi

Prior to teaching yoga, Judi was a corporate attorney; she discovered yoga while seeking a tool to reduce stress and to find a balance between the demands of raising her children and her career. Her personal yoga practice quickly led to a passion for sharing with others the transformational possibilities that yoga offers. She continues her studies of the vast subject of yoga with renowned Iyengar Yoga teacher Patricia Walden, as well as other inspiring teachers and is profoundly grateful to all of them. She teaches workshops, group classes and maintains a private clientele throughout northern Westchester.
