about Candice:

Candice’s classes have evolved from her studies in Iyengar yoga and vinyasa flow. She has been blessed to study under many accomplished and inspiring teachers including Iyengar yoga with senior instructor Kofi Busia, the pelvic floor with Leslie Howard and prenatal yoga with Robin Sale, as well as continuing education with top instructors across the genres.

She has a deep interest in the workings of the body; its anatomy and alignment and especially loves to work with people who have dealt with adversity, injury, pregnancy or limitation, for it is there that the magic of the practice happens. Expect for classes to be fun and lighthearted but challenging and that your individual needs will be well taken care of.

Candice teaches yoga, prenatal yoga and pelvic health. She is registered with Yoga Alliance as an E-RYT and holds certificates in hatha yoga and Whole Birth Prenatal Yoga and Support.

Candice’s book: Prenatal Yoga; Finding Movement in Fullness is now available for purchase at Amazon.com

Candice’s classes at the 2011 Flagstaff Yoga festival:

Align with the Divine: The 8 Limbs in Practice

The philosophy of yoga allows us to tap into the deeper levels of our being, enabling growth and expansion from the inside out. Learn to identify common psychological roadblocks that are holding you back on your mat and in your life. Experience the 8 limbs of yoga in action! (Mostly Asana).

Up and Over! Arm Balances and Backbends

Arm Balances ask us to conquer our fears, turn around our opinions and trust in our own strength, while backbends tap into the heart center and encourage expansion. By combining the two, you will experience the playful and adventurous sides of your practice. This is an intermediate workshop: Please be able to push up into urdvha dhanurasana (wheel) and kick up into handstand at the wall.

In the House of Ganesha

The koshas are levels of being in yoga, moving systematically from the spiritual center to the physical body. By uniting the understanding of the physical/anatomical body, the energetic body and spiritual understanding, the practice becomes richer and takes on more meaning. We will discuss the anatomy of the pelvic floor, the historical retellings of the various myths of Ganesh, explore the root chakra and its meanings and take these ideas into our practice. This workshop is open and appropriate to both men and women.
