Right on time

So much for keeping up with my blog during my five weeks at Discovery...but I have learned to not be so critical of my self during the past four weeks. Things happen all in right time. So, as I embark on my fifth and final week here in St. Augustine, I find myself reflecting on all of the wonderful things that have transpired over such a short period of time. Great yoga, wonderful friends, amazing memories, serious personal and emotional transformation, and of course, in four short days I will be a certified yoga teacher.

As a yogini I hope to share what yoga has taught me, by creating space for yoga as a tool for personal healing, transformation, and health. I want to be a guide and mentor in this process, rather than someone who simply directs others, to allow for each individuals personal exploration.

Check out my latest tagged photos on Facebook to see some of my experience here and my practice teaching!

Namaste.

Audra Grady, RYT, MS

Audra became aware of yoga through a pilates class in college while studying art and sociology and has continued to explore the integration of yoga in her life. Over the past three years she has devoted herself to regular and frequent practice in a variety of styles including Bikram, Baptiste, Hatha, Anusara, and Advanced Kripalu. In the summer of 2011 she completed her 200 hour yoga teacher training at Discovery Yoga in St. Augustine, FL with Deva Parnell. She is continuing her training toward a 500 hour certification. Yoga has helped her to overcome depression, and anxiety, and allowed her to discontinue use of medication for these issues. She hopes to bring yoga to her students so that they may create their own foundation and bring mindfulness and wellness into their daily lives.

Audra has a Master of Science in Organizational Management and works in higher education developing experiential and community based learning environments. In addition to group classes she is available for private, small group, and basic yoga training sessions.
