Erin Allan Yoga Yoga Instructor I love to create a sense of community, and ensure all feel welcome and accepted.

Erin Allan, MA, ERYT-500

I came to the discipline of yoga in my personal search for a healthy way to deal with stress in my life and have since become profoundly passionate about it. After working 8 years as a therapist in the counseling field, I discovered that helping others using only techniques employed by traditional talking therapy was shortsighted, and this method alone no longer resonated with me. I began a deeper exploration of the art and science of yoga (including asana, pranayama, meditation and philosophy), I have found through teaching these principals, a shift in consciousness will begin to take place in my students, and that awareness allows for greater healing to take place. My classes provide a joyful and safe space to explore, guided with both knowledge and intuition, always encouraging students to listen to their inherent wisdom. Over the last 10 years, I have taught almost 3,000 hours of various types of classes, including but not limited to: vinyasa, power, basics, restorative, ananda, yin, nidra, meditation, and workshops. I've had the pleasure of sharing this gift by teaching at various studios, large corporations, health-clubs, wellness centers, government facilities, apartment buildings, and through private lessons.

When asked what yoga means to her⇒

"Yoga for me is a way of life. The asanas on the mat are but one small part of the larger equation. I try my best to regularly incorporate all 8 limbs of the path. Conscious breathing (pranayama) helps keep me present through the day. Regular study of the texts (svadhyaya) serve as a consistent reminder for why these choices are important. Meditation (dhyana) keeps me grounded."

Erin's NEW session is 'Creative Flow' Yoga
@ 9-10:15am WEDNESDAY MORNINGS 🌞

As a teacher I will always be a student, and my students will continually teach me. I value safety, inclusivity, self-exploration, and self-acceptance.

The first time I read this quote, oddly enough my instant reaction was a feeling of needing to defend myself.... to myself??... 🀯 I don't like to think that I have to TOLERATE anything. What are these CONSEQUENCES? Words like these seem to evoke such negative connotations. Sometimes the concepts that we react to with such resistance are exactly where we find places inside ourselves that need growth. And, sure enough, the more I let it marinate, the reality sunk in.

Most of us are masters at distracting ourselves. We use television, fill our time up with tasks and plans, use mind numbing substances, eat when we're not hungry, the list goes on and on. But something happens when you get quiet - when you truly are alone with yourself, as is the case in yoga and meditation. It's here where these consequences become very real, and the notion of tolerating them can become excruciating.

The consequences for me are largely mental, like when that negative self-talk creeps in (more often than I'd like to admit). And some not so great physical consequences as well, like when I don't treat my body with the respect it deserves.

These are the things glaring back at you with painful clarity when the mind quiets down, and you are left with you... and only you. It's a beautiful and terrifying place to be. With dedication, time, and practice this place becomes a refuge. The work is hard, but as you shed away those layers, you get to discover a glimpse of ineffable peace πŸ™πŸΌ
