Yoga is the experience of being in this moment, right now,
fully inhabiting this body-mind, creating a state of clarity from
which we can act with authenticity, or at least have a moment
before impulsive reactions set in. Cultivating presence we relax
about getting it or not getting it and surrender to the moment as
it is.
As owner of Breathing Time Yoga, Karen is dedicated to creating a community and space for healing through yoga. Karen is an educator, teaching the students what they need to know to practice and how to match the practices to their unique needs and interests.
Karen teaches weekly classes, workshops on a variety of topics, and works one on one with students in private yoga therapy sessions.
Karen has been practicing yoga in one form or another for the past 50 years. She began her study of the Viniyoga approach in 1994 with Gary Kraftsow of the American Viniyoga Institute (AVI). Viniyoga focuses on how yoga can be adapted to serve individual goals and needs. She is an AVI Yoga Teacher (500-hr) and AVI Certified Yoga Therapist. Karen also holds an MAT from RISD.

Yoga is a tool for personal transformation. In our fast-passed
non-stop world, we use yoga to take a moment of quiet to transform
ourselves spiritually and physically. Through yoga, we learn to see
the interconnectedness of our inner and outer worlds.
Janice started practicing yoga in 1994 and completed her teaching training at Breathing Time Yoga in 2017. Yoga has helped her physically and emotionally, keeping her body and mind flexible. She is an avid ballroom dancer and enjoys volunteering for animal rescue organizations. She has her B.S. in Biology with a minor in Environmental Science.

AM Strength, Stretch & Flow IN PERSON Nicole
Having always been fascinated by movement and creating art
with the body, Nicole completed ten years of dance education while
in grade school. In college, she discovered yoga. While dance was
beautiful, the practice consisted of forcing the body into an
already pre-existing shape. She loved the freedom that yoga gave
her: being able to create the shapes with the body. Yoga helped her
discover a new found creative gateway that lead to a deeper
understanding of herself. Wanting to deepen her practice and to be
able to share this connection of mind and body with others, she
completed her 200 hour Viniyoga certification at Breathing Time
Yoga. Nicole's classes are a shared space surrounded by the belief
that each student is having a unique experience; and to develop
compassion towards the self to meet ourselves exactly where we are,
as we are.

AM Viniyoga: Beginners Live Streaming - Virtual Maggie
I see asana practice as one of the most concrete ways of
bringing mind, body and spirit together. The word Yoga in Sanskrit
means union; union of mind, body and spirit.
Through learning poses and proper alignment, and possibly the Sanskrit names for them we are using our minds while practicing. I will always share with students ways we can listen to our bodies while practicing asanas, discerning if a pose or sequence is actually beneficial for your body at this time.
As a yoga instructor I feel one of the most important things I do for my students is to hold a safe container for their practice, one that will allow them to feel simultaneously inspired and challenged and held gently.
My Gentle Flow Vinyasa classes bring us from gentle stretches where the breath & movement combine, into slow and thoughtful vinyasa flows and then back to the mat for the equally important part of practice...unwinding and entering Sāvāsana.
I have practiced many styles of Yoga with many teachers over many years- and all of them influence and inform my teaching. My formal training is a 200hr Vinyasa Teaching Training I received in 2019 with Coral Brown through All That Matters in Wakefield RI. I have been a student at Breathing Time Yoga on and off for many years and am so very happy and honored to join the teaching staff!

PM Bhakti Yoga & Reiki Live Streaming Virtual David
Our Essence is far beyond what the mind has ever dreamed
possible. When we are in a state of Yoga (Union) our Essence shines
through inner qualities of Joy, Peace, and Bliss. Each path of Yoga
has a unique way of calming the restlessness in our minds, giving
us an opportunity to experience what rests beyond the personality.
Remembering, reconnecting, and Realizing who we are has been the
promise of Yoga for time immemorial. Allow a moment to close your
eyes and look around! There is an entire universe within waiting to
be discovered!
David is passionate about restoring the larger promise of all yogic paths, Self-Realization. He has served as a Yoga Instructor, Mediation Teacher, Reiki Master, Whole Food Farmacist, Energy Healer, Kirtan Artist, and Spiritual Counselor to the South Coast Massachusetts and Rhode Island Communities. In 2016, David received his 200hr Yoga teacher training from Mt. Madonna Institute in California and has had the honor of teaching students from widely varying backgrounds.
Yoga has been practicing on David formally for 10 years! Living Yoga is the deeper invitation; that we may use our on the mat practice to inspire and remind ourselves of the wellspring of Peace that lies within, even in our day to day life. And from that contentment a desire to share our wholeness with others, that they too may be awakened within!

AM Whole Body Yoga IN PERSON at Breathing Time Yoga Mimi
Drawing from over 15 years of work as a community organizing
and an adult educator, Mimi is able to connect with her students
where they are at and to create an environment that feels open and
welcoming. She been practicing yoga for over a decade, and received
her Vinyasa teacher certification in 2010 from Tom Gillette at Eyes
of the World. Since then Mimi has taught in a variety of settings
including studios, medical clinics, homeless shelters, drug rehab
facilities, and schools.
Prompted by an urge to more explicitly help people use yoga as
a tool for healing, from both physical and emotional injuries, Mimi
recently received her certification in Therapeutic Yoga from Cheri
Clampett and Arturo Peal and has studied Restorative Yoga with
Jillian Pransky. Additionally she has participated in workshops
about yoga’s benefits for dealing with depression/anxiety and PTSD
with Bo Forbes, Bessel van der Kolk, and Dana Moore.
Whether leading more challenging classes for experienced
yogis, or teaching classes to complete beginners and populations
with limited mobility and significant physical/emotional
challenges, Mimi likes to remind her students that yoga is about
more than the physical postures- that the asana are a vehicle to
help bring about a more unified state of consciousness and that the
real work of yoga takes place off the mat. Mimi’s aim is to guide
people through an experience on their yoga mat that creates space
in her students’ lives to connect in deeper and more meaningful
ways with themselves, their community, and the world around
them.

PM Kundalini Yoga Live Streaming Virtual Sat Siri
Sat Siri first experienced yoga's profoundly transformative
healing power in college. Hatha yoga and Vipassana Meditation
formed the basis of her private sadhana (personal practice) during
a twenty-year career in book publishing. That career ended when she
was sidelined by a multi-year period of severe illness brought
about by undiagnosed Lyme Disease. During that time Sat Siri found
her own motto: “If you can breathe, you can do yoga.”
Introduced to Kundalini Yoga in 1999, it became the primary
vehicle for her healing process, providing the road map to other
modalities as well. Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan
inspired her to become a teacher, to share this form of healing.
Her own teacher is Guru Dev Singh Khalsa, the Master of Sat Nam
Rasayan®. Guru Dev was Yogi Bhajan’s chosen student, the one to
whom he gave the lineage of Sat Nam Rasayan®. Guru Dev inspired Sat
Siri to become a Sat Nam Rasayan® healer and teacher. Sat Nam
Rasayan® is a meditative state that allows those who practice it to
open their inner universe to the discovery of the Universal Self
and to dissolve the resistances that block the flow of life and the
obstacles that stand in the way for the complete realization of
one's own life.
Sat Siri has been teaching Kundalini Yoga since 2003 and has
been practicing Sat Nam Rasayan since 2006. Sat Siri has also
studied with Yogi Amrit Desai and is a certified Amrit Method® Yoga
Nidra Facilitator.
Sat Siri is a compassionate and loving teacher whose joy is in
supporting others in their journey of healing.
