Discovery Yoga

The past few months presented themselves with some drastic changes in my life. This has created a big, long pause in my blogging... in yoga speak, a long out breath. Sigh.

But, now I am back! And ready to pursue my yoga teacher training. I have decided to do my training with Deva Parnell at Discovery Yoga in St. Augustine, FL. This was after much research of styles of yoga, teacher trainings, and endless hours online. I also found a program in Bali that was really exciting, but totally unrealistic for me financially. Deva offers a program that has been perfected over many years, in a small group of students. At the end of April I went to meet Deva and take class with her. This visit confirmed it! Then I tackled other parts of my life that needed to fall together to make this happen.

I am excited to embark on this journey, beginning June 19th, 2011. Thank you to the friends and family who have supported me through this process, because it was quite a lengthy and emotionally involved process! I will keep the blog updated through my five weeks at Discovery Yoga!

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.
