We are a regular husband and wife with two children. We happened upon athletic yoga back in 1998 when we were living in South Florida and both working more typical jobs. (Rae Lynn as an occupational therapist and Jeff owning a pool company.) We
were hooked.
Athletic yoga was the most intelligent whole-body (and mind) form of exercise we had ever experienced.
We started to practice yoga regularly and consistently as our "feel-GREAT" form of mind-body fitness. Through the practice of athletic yoga, we immediately began to experience renewed vitality, energy, increased strength, weight-loss, and decreased
body aches for our then "30-something" bodies. Equally as important, we found that the mindfull practice of yoga connected us to greater degrees of conscious living. Practicing yoga brought us to a place of deeper mental balance, inner calm and
strengthened our ability to live more fully in the experience of the present moment.
We continued to practice yoga regularly and consistently over the next 4 years and found that the mental and physical benefits continued to deepen. Yoga was a grounding and fun element in our lives, keeping us mentally and physically strong and
balanced amidst the flurry of daily life challenges. We could not keep all this to ourselves. In January 2002, living the quote of Helen Keller "life is a great adventure or nothing at all" we left our "typical jobs" and trekked cross-country
with our son (then 3 years old) and lived in San Francisco for 4 months taking our first yoga instructor trainings.
The creation of The YOGA ON YORK studio (established July 2002) was our biggest expression of "carpe diem" to date!
Our daily sharing of the profound mind-body benefits of yoga with others is our life on purpose... a great joy! We welcome you to YOGA ON YORK and the powerful mind-body-spirit journey of yoga.
Namaste,
Jeff and Rae Lynn
