Serena - Yoga instructor
I'm a Reiki Master Healer and Meditation Teacher. My teaching focus on creating a nourishing experience for my students. Through gentle, sustained poses, and with a meditative mindset, I invite students to stay present in the moment and observe sensations without judgment, cultivating inner peace and self-awareness. I integrate a holistic approach to enhance self-reflection, I incorporate guided prompts for reflective journaling post-practice. This helps students to process their experience, notice shifts in their body and mind, and develop a personal understanding of their ongoing journey toward holistic wellness. Overall, my teaching aims to foster a nurturing environment where calmness, introspection, and self-discovery are at the forefront. This class is specifically designed for beginner yogis who want to establish a strong connection with their spirit. You will engage in guided meditation and mindfulness practices focused on grounding and chakra balancing. Follow the instructions carefully, stay present, and actively participate in each exercise to deepen your spiritual connection, release tension and remove emotional blockages. This class is tailored to the customer's needs.

They explored academic concepts such as vocal registers (chest and head voice), the importance of resonance, and how larynx position influences different singing styles.
