Dolores Tanner is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, which acknowledges the completion of a yoga teacher training with an approved and active Registered Yoga School (RYS). As a registered nurse and reiki practitioner, I have always been interested in wellness, healthy living and integrated wholeness. I was introduced to yoga when my daughter invited me to go with her to a yoga class. I remember driving home after class that night and noticing how wonderful my neck felt and how relaxed and open I was. My yogic path had begun! 10 years later, endeavoring to share the benefits of yoga, I completed teacher training at Discovery Yoga in St. Augustine, FL under the direction of senior Kripalu teacher Deva Parnell. The focus in the Kripalu tradtion is compassion, listening to your body and honoring its need. I teach traditional hatha yoga in the Kripalu tradition emphasizing awareness of breath and alignment in all postures to facilitate inward focus and integration of mind, body and spirit in the present moment.
