Anne Harrison

Anne "Jayanti" Harrison has been practicing yoga for 30+ years, teaching for 10+ and has 700 hours of formal training: 200 hr. general yoga; 500 hr. Kripaulu and 200 hr. Iyengar Therapeutic (plus countless workshops).  Having begun her studies in the Iyengar tradition and experimenting with many different modalities and schools of yoga, she now focuses on alignment and restoration in her teaching style.  BKS Iyengar said:  “It is through the alignment of the body that I discovered the alignment of my mind, self, and intelligence.”  This gem of wisdom is what Jayanti is passionate to share with her students.  She encourages the student to discover his/her energy centers by holding poses with breath techniques to facilitate the subtle practice of tuning into body intelligence for stability and ease as opposed to grasping at a perfect pose. Jayanti also weaves classical yogic philosophy into her classes. .  This holistic style of yoga is very beneficial to all and particularly those with pain, injuries, constrictions and stress.

Jayanti graduated with a BA in English from Catholic University and worked for 27 years at the World Bank.
