Her journey with yoga began nine years ago right here on Chesterman's Beach in Tofino, and has led her to study with many world class teachers such as Donna Farhi, Shiva Rea, Tim Miller and John Scott, as well as local BC teachers Fiona Stang, Shakti Mhi, and Marion McConnell.

In addition to the drop in schedule posted on www.anahatayoga.info, Natalie also leads workshops and intensive trainings as well as early morning classes at the Wickanninish Inn. For four years she has been the sole yoga teacher for Pacific Surf Camps. She also partners with Milagro Retreats to offer seasonal yoga retreats at the Botanical Gardens in Tofino.

Her greatest desire as a teacher of yoga is to help others discover the vast reservoir of creativity and joyful expression that lies within them and her greatest desire as a student of yoga is to continue to learn and to share in learning with the many others who are also walking this universal ever evolving path of Yoga with her.

April Woods, RYT

April Woods is a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher at the 200 hour level, and has been trained in the Hatha, Ashtanga, and Yin methods. After attending her first yoga class she became instantly compelled and inspired by the practice, and after six years of personal exploration she was drawn toward teaching as a way to deepen her studies while enabling her to share her discoveries with others.

Growing up in the wilds of Clayoquot Sound, April always felt a strong connection to the earth. The practice of yoga has drawn her even more deeply into the interconnectedness of the universe, and brought her in touch with the vastness around her and within herself, it is this experience of connection that she most wants to impart through her teaching.

She is thrilled to have found such a content, joyful way of living and finds new inspiration through her daily journey of being both a teacher of yoga as well as a student.
