Sumya
is a Registered Yoga Teacher (500 Hrs.) through Yoga Alliance, and has been
teaching yoga for 10 years. Her eclectic teaching style was inspired and born
out of her curiosity, study, appreciation, and love for all styles of yoga. She
has been inspired by Iyengar teachers, Anusara teachers, and Ashtanga teachers.
"There really is only one 'style' of yoga! Whatever practice that makes us
look deeper into who we are and why we're here is a yoga practice! Whatever
practice makes us ohhh and ahhh over the wonders of life is a yoga
practice! Yoga is a practice to celebrate life and all its wonders!"
Movement
is life, and she thinks conscious movement of the miraculous human body as
a vehicle to discovering personal potential and fulfilling dharma. She
continues her own study enthusiasticly, including her most recent 40-hour
Anatomy in Clay(tm) training. She tries to make asana,
anatomy, and philosophy tangible in her teachings. She loves to challenge
others and encourages everyone to listen to their inner guidance in all things.
"The stillness that yoga induces helps us hear our own intuitive voice. When we
listen to it, we are always guided to the appropriate path for us. But there
are so many external distractions that we have to learn how to quiet our minds.
This is why yoga is appropriate and beneficial for anyone. And not to mention
the physical benefits of yoga! We learn to inhabit our bodies and find joy in
movement again! Yoga is healing on so many levels!"
She
founded A.C.T. (A.wakening C.hange T.ogether). This is a karma yoga group in
Kansas City that gets together quarterly for volunteer projects around the
city. (See Empowered by Activism page.)

Kid's Yoga & Art
|
I teach Kid's Yoga & Art classes monthly at Inspire Yoga in Prairie Village. (Please view my Empowered by Fitness link to read exactly why I combine yoga & art.) I went from teaching kid's yoga once a week to once a month because families are, many times, already overloaded with activities. Trying to come once a week seemed to be creating more stress than anything else. Kid's will still benefit from yoga practice once a month, and parents can rest easy not overwhelming themselves or their child with too much busyness. I hope to see you there! Please view my Calendar for specific dates, but it's always nice if you RSVP so I have an idea how many will be there. And don't forget...Kid's Yoga & Art makes a fun and unique birthday party! You can choose the art project. Contact me for details. Namaste` Sumya Click to purchase Sumya Anani's 'Yoga For Combat Athletes' DVD. |
