NOTE: I started taking yoga in 1953, before I even knew what to was. My teacher, Michael Volin, was the father of yoga in Australia, although he was a native of India. Michael always said, “Love Your Body,” which I have embraced. He also introduced me to vegetarianism and I soon was given up red meat, poultry, and fish and also flirted with veganism. I think my love of yoga (I now do Yin Yoga) rubbed off on my older daughter. Here is her photo and comments. ellensue
Welcome to the Sculpt Instructor Family, Eileen!
“I was first introduced to yoga by my mother in the 1970s when I was a little girl (we wore leotards to class!), but I didn’t really begin my own yoga practice and exploration until I was 30 in 1995. I turned 51 this year and I have more vitality and happiness than I’ve ever had – and yoga is a big part of that! Yoga is a place I always go to – my home – in times of joy and high energy but also in times of struggle, stress and exhaustion. Yoga has helped me get through difficult times – it’s my therapy and safe place. I’m just beginning my yoga teaching journey with Sculpt at Spark, and I’m so grateful for the opportunity. I have so much to learn – I always feel like a beginner when I step on my mat! I’m committed to teaching classes that are safe, sustainable and transformational. My purpose as a yoga teacher is this: to guide and inspire you in your personal practice so you can continue practicing throughout your life guided by the best teacher you will ever have – the one right inside you. Namaste!”
