Heather Fisse

Instructor

Yoga Den Mandarin

Although Heather has a relatively brief history with the asana practice of yoga she has been integrating the spiritual and meditative aspects of the practice into her personal and professional life for many years; and in 2010 when she rolled the mat out for her first asana practice she was instantly connected with the wisdom and benefits it had to offer. Heather completed her 200hr teacher training in 2012 and has been providing individual yoga sessions that focus on restoring proper alignment, postural correction and connection with one’s divine self at her wellness clinic Jacksonville Health and Wellness Center in addition to teaching mind/body classes at the Den.Heather also holds degrees in massage therapy and mental health counseling and has recognized the value of integrating yogic wisdom and principles into both of these practices. She views both physiological and psychological dis-ease as emerging from a fundamental disconnect from one’s higher self and the resulting development of maladaptive thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Through the integration of yoga with massage and/or counseling she has seen individuals transform their lives into more meaningful, purpose driven paths.
