Ashly Burmeister, RYT
Ashly began her personal yoga practice in 2000 while living in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. She then received her instructor certification in Hatha Yoga in 2005 from Charleston's Holy Cow Yoga & Holistic Center and her prenatal yoga instructor certification from Stephanie Keach in Atlanta, GA. She has taught throughout South Carolina, Illinois, and Indiana. Her love lies in teaching Gentle & Restorative Yoga. She aspires to provide a safe, comfortable, relaxed atmosphere for people to learn more about themselves as they learn the benefits of yoga, yet learn to laugh and have fun with people who wish to unlock the health, happiness, peace, and joy that they already hold within themselves.
Piper Spurgeon, RYT
I began my yoga practice in 2013 as an overwhelmed, stressed out mom who felt like I didn’t know if I was coming or going. I was doing everything for everyone else and nothing for myself. I was out of shape and needed to shed a few pounds. Through my yoga practice I was learning to quiet my own monkey mind and put myself back on the list for a change. The more I practiced the better I felt. I was much more relaxed and focused. Not that I don’t still get stressed, I do but now I have some tools in my toolbox to turn to for help. That is when I decided to deepen my practice by becoming a certified yoga teacher through Yoga Alliance. I completed my 200 hour yoga teacher certification training May 2017 through Practice Indie in Indianapolis. I see yoga as a tool for mindful and intentional living, as well as a way to tap into your most vibrant loving self and awaken the light within. My classes focus on creating a space for students’ self- acceptance, inward reflection, and self-discovery. I continue to practice and learn daily. I’m excited to help others in their journey towards inner peace through their own yoga practice. Together we can change the world one breath at a time.
Lisa Brown, RYT
Lisa has been practicing various styles of yoga for nearly five years. She finds coming to the mat as an escape from the chaos and stress we so often encounter in daily life; a little time carved out of the day to reset and be present. The profound mental and physical benefits yoga provides fostered a desire to share her love of the practice with others, in hopes of enriching their lives as it does hers. In 2021, she completed her 200 HR teacher training with YogaRenew based in Hoboken, NJ. While she finds all styles of yoga beneficial, her passion lies in Vinyasa. The synchronization of breath and movement connects the body with the mind, allowing one to be present and in the moment, thereby receiving the greatest benefit from their practice. People find themselves drawn to yoga for many different reasons. Whatever your reason may be, her hope is that you leave each class feeling a deeper inner peace, a stronger sense of self-awareness, and an all-around feeling of joyfulness and light.
