Sofi is an advanced certified Jivamukti Yoga Instructor who has been teaching Yoga since 1997. She was first certified by Alan Finger in the tradition of Ishta Yoga, and soon after found her foremost teachers David Life and Sharon Gannon, co- founders of Jivamukti Yoga. Along with David and Sharon, Sofi sites Seane Corn as one of her main inspirations and is an active member of the Off The Mat, Into The World community. Sofi is the founder and co-director of "I'll Yoga For You" - Yoga Vermont's community outreach program as well as of the The Vermont Community Yoga Project, an organization aimed towards bringing Yoga to the under-served populations.
" The underlying theme in all my classes is devotion. I believe that the amount of happiness and freedom we experience in our lives is deeply linked to our ability to dedicate ourselves to something greater then our own personal gain. Through devotion we are able to reconnect with the Infinite wisdom that
dwells within the heart of each one of us."
In her classes, workshops and retreats, Sofi combines a deep understanding of sacred Yoga texts with creative asana sequencing, chanting, music and meditation to provide students with an enriching and heart-opening experience. Her goal is to clearly communicate the traditional ancient teachings of Yoga in a way that will assist students to understand and reflect upon them so that they can be used to enrich their daily lives and lead them to their True Nature of Oneness.
Sofi lives in Burlington, Vermont with her daughter, Delia, and her poodle, Penny.
Sofi teaches both private and group classes at here own studio, the Bliss Space. She also travels nationally and internationally on a regular basis to teach workshops.
