Asha Watson CIYT

I am a Certified Yoga Therapist and Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher. I was introduced to Iyengar Yoga after two car accidents, one week apart. I credit the methodical and systematic approach of Iyengar Yoga to my speedy recovery. I have attended Teacher Training with senior teachers such as Lois Steinberg and Colleen Gallagher over the course of twenty(20) years. I have a degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering and have worked for years as a Software Developer. My engineering mind continues to be attracted to Iyengar Yoga because of its systematic approach and its focus on precision. I love that through Iyengar Yoga, anyone, regardless of medical condition, age, or flexibility can experience the benefits of yoga.
