Meet Amy
I have a passion for teaching! I have a degree in elementary education and became a yoga instructor in 2013. I taught yoga at Dixie State University for 2 years and Infusion Yoga and Pilates for 2 1/2 years. I opened Renew and Restore Yoga in Oct. 2018.
I greatly enjoy teaching yoga to individuals and small groups. Yoga enhances all aspects of my life. I experienced trauma as a child for which I received *EMDR and parts work therapy found it quite helpful. When I coupled my therapeutic treatment with yoga I discovered full body, mind and soul healing. Therapy and yoga combined is ultimate healing! Connecting my mind with my body makes all the difference in bringing me to the present while working through the wounds of the past. Our bodies are equipped to facilitate our resilience.
Since 1994, I've dealt with the chronic effects of Crohn's disease. The benefits of routinely practicing yoga improve my health daily along with a mindful diet. My desire is to share what I've learned to help others. I am the mother of three awesome children and greatly enjoy spending time with them and my husband.

Trauma Sensitive Yoga

Trauma Sensitive Yoga
Amy incorporates Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TSY) in her teaching. TSY is an adaptive practice with a physical focus. The key elements are breath, movement and awareness. Focusing on the physical sensation and breath grounds awareness in the present. The consistent cues of Amy's voice help the mind to stay in the moment. The ability to accept the present moment provides the opportunity to become 'unstuck'.
