Evie is a longtime native of Roanoke. She has been teaching yoga since 2003, receiving her 200 hour certificate from Anna Pittman, RYT-500, in Blacksburg, VA in 2004 and her 300 hour certificate from the Himalayan Institute in 2014. In addition, Evie is certified in Restorative Breathwork®, Divine Sleep® Yoga Nidra, Dynamic Gentle Yoga, and has some training in Viniyoga. She has also studied Vipassana meditation with Shinzen Young, founder of Unified Mindfulness. Evie strives for her students to deepen their awareness of breath and body sensation through gentle yoga poses and longer relaxations at the end of classes. Not only does she incorporate what she has learned into each Svasana, she will often use chimes and tingsha bells to help students stay awake and aware during relaxation to enhance awareness of vibrations in the body and spirit.
