About Rolf

I've been teaching yoga for about 15 years and have over 1,500 hrs of yoga teacher training. I am an experienced registered Yoga teacher (E-RYT 500) with Yoga Alliance. I currently teach a Gentle Yoga class at a county rec center. I gravitate toward Vini Yoga and Vinyasa Krama which involve slow meditative movements with a focus on coordinating the breath with the movement. I have worked with a wide range of ages and abilities as well as people recovering from injuries.

I started taking very basic and restorative yoga classes after suffering a back injury. After several years of recovery, and taking classes from many different yoga teachers, I fell in love with a yoga style that really resonated and gave me my first glimpse of what I'd call the "state of yoga". I decided then to take my first yoga teacher training with the teacher who practiced that style.

I completed the equivalent of a 200-hr Yoga Teacher training through the Integrated School of Yoga, a 500-hr Yoga Teacher training through the Healing Yoga Foundation, and a 300 hr training in the Himalayan Institute tradition. I am registered with the Yoga Alliance (RYT-500), International Yoga Federation, and Sarva Purnam International Yoga Society. My personal yoga practice and teaching style is gentle and therapeutic in nature. It incorporates Yoga Integal, Viniyoga and Vinyasa Krama Chikitsa.

About the lesson

I like to set up an initial consultation (no charge) to ask questions, understand goals, and confirm there will be benefit for a new client. This can be done in person, phone or via ZOOM. If there's a good fit, I will design a practice and we can set up a schedule for follow-up meetings.

I've worked with a range of ages (16 to 70) and abilities. It seems like the people who gravitate toward my reaching style are either older, recovering from injuries, or looking for stress relief and a more peaceful mind. However I enjoy working with people of all abilities.

Talk with and take classes from several teachers if possible and find one who you like personally and who understands your goals and limitations. It may take you a while to find a style that feels right and a teacher who you can work with comfortably. Also, you may gravitate toward different teachers as your practice evolves over time.

I had been teaching gentle yoga classes via zoom for a few years during the CoVid pandemic. In one of those classes, a participant complained of neck and shoulder pain. I introduced a very slow, methodical sequence to the class. The following week, the same person commented on how much better she felt after that class. That's what I love to hear and is one of the things that keeps me offering yoga classes.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Yoga should be enjoyable; something that feels good and you look forward to practicing. Beyond the recreational aspects, yoga - the true benefits come over time. Any amount of yoga practice can be beneficial but those who are eager and diligent tend to see the benefits more quickly. So recognize why you want to practice, how much time and energy you're likely to put into the practice and appreciate the results.

Christine

Very knowledgeable instruction, in addition to a personalized feeling. My husband and I are at different levels of fitness and flexibility but the classes were always tailored so that both of us were safe, comfortable and challenged enough to see results. I recommend highly! I wish there was a way to give more than 5 stars.
