YOGA TEACHERS
Victoria
Faulkner
Victoria has
been practicing yoga for years and received her 200 hour instructor
certificate from yoga alliance recognized Two Suns Rising Yoga. This
spiritual practice has brought peace into her life and she hopes
students will leave her class feeling that same peace. Victoria
encourages students to take what they gain on the mat and apply to
their daily lives. She has worked as a childbirth educator and labor
partner. During her pregnancy her interest was piqued to offer
prenatal, mommy and me and children’s yoga. Victoria is also
certified by Radiant Child to teach children’s yoga. Victoria
continues to study yoga independently and through her personal
practice. This keeps things fresh and allows her to bring new
material to the classroom. She can teach gentle classes or offer
challenging workouts. Victoria recognizes that students take yoga
for a variety of reasons and hopes that her students will find what
they are looking for when they attend her classes.
Michelle Williams
Michelle Williams, RYT first began
practicing yoga in 2004 as a means of releasing tension after long
workdays in the corporate world, as well as, the everyday stresses
felt by a working mother. After two years of yoga classes, Michelle
received her 200HR Teacher Training from Didier Razon's Yoga
Alliance registered, "Two Sun's Rising Yoga", while pregnant with
her fourth child. Her training included prenatal and children's
yoga. Yoga has been a tremendous gift to her and she now has a
strong desire to share it's healing and empowering effects with
others. She believes that the magic of yoga is discovering your own
personal practice that is unique to your own mind, body and spirit.
Michelle hopes to help students find their own practice within their
individual capabilities and limitations with a constant focus on
honoring your body. Michelle has trained with Doug Swenson, Todd
Norian and has also obtained certifications in Vinyasa Flow at Bliss
Yoga Shala and children's yoga through the Radiant Child Yoga
Program. She is excited to continue to gain knowledge on her yogic

her personal practice.
Reece Ingold
Reece
has been interested in fitness his entire life. He became a
competition swimmer at the age of 4. At 16 he started out as a long
distance runner in high school, and began bodybuilding at the age of
21. After 15 years of this 'non-competition,' amateur weight
training he became interested in the meditative qualities of yoga
upon, among other reasons, reading about Bikram, a celebrated
bodybuilder who also later became a yogi.
He has been practicing yoga ever since, and at the age of 38, and 6
years of elementary education under his belt, decided to pursue a
second career as a yoga instructor. He incorporates a broad range of
disciplines, anywhere from a restorative 'hatha' yoga, to the more
strenuous 'ashtanga' style. Please join him on his personal journey.
Tina
Vaughn
Tina, RYT 200 began
practicing yoga 9 years ago following the birth of her second child.
Yoga was a way of cultivating peace and love within and though the
journey began with a trend, it resulted in an unexpected awakening
of self; she has truly not been the same since. Tina is deeply
delighted and excited to share yoga with those who seek it out,
whatever their intention or desire, because she believes the
practice comes to speak to us all, in our own way, in our own time.
Tina’s classes encourages a very individual yoga practice for
students, offering modifications and variations so that each student
can find their way to a personal expression on the mat, honoring
their body’s limits and abilities.
Nitin
Gill
Nitin has been teaching yoga,
meditation, Reiki, and Ayurvedic Healing in the spiritual city of
McLeod Ganj, India for the past 13 years at his center Rishi Yoga.
Nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas in the Dhauladhar mountain
range, Rishi Yoga Center has serviced hundreds of travelers from all
over the world who come to learn ancient healing practices, retreat
and visit this city, home of the Dalai Lama in exile.
In childhood, Nitin’s thirst for knowledge first took him to meet
his guru, Shri Shri 108 Baba Dhuni Nath, or BABAJI who has spent 35
years of his life in a state of super consciousness in the
Himalayas. Nitin developed his passion for yoga and healing
throughout the years by learning from his guru at Babaji’s ashram on
numerous yearly retreats in the Himalayas.
Nitin’s devotion to the continuous study and practice of yoga
healing led him to the father City of Yoga, Rishikesh, India where
he studied at the Trust for Health Care, Education, Research &
Development Institute: The Aham Brahmasmi Yog Mandir Trust.
Nitin and his brother Shivam, who now teaches in India and Paris,
have had the opportunity of being in close proximity of their
teacher Babaji and among the yogis who taught them the discipline of
yoga and meditation from a young age. Nitin and brother Shivam both
dedicated their lives to spreading the ancient knowledge of yoga and
healing from the East to all seekers.
