What is Yoga? | Your Instructors | Note from Robin | Featured Articles | Archived Notes In 1992, Robin and her husband relocated from Seattle where she had been teaching yoga, to raise their children in the spacious and rural Snoqualmie Valley. Unsure of how receptive the local community would be to yoga, she offered an Introductory level class on Wednesday nights at The Fall City Elementary School gymnasium. The class was packed, and within a year the demand for classes was so great, she built what is now the original Yoga Barn on her home property, one mile east of downtown Fall City. After five years of service up on the hill, Robin felt the calling to expand the program to meet the needs of the growing Issaquah community, and in 1999, the Issaquah Yoga Barn was born. Over the past ten years, Robin has trained many wonderful teachers and enriched the lives of students through her dedication and commitment to yoga. The Yoga Barn's Center for Wellness has continued to grow into a refuge for healing and transformation. Robin's dream is being realized through the strong community connection that has been cultivated among teachers, students and the greater network of spiritual leaders and holistic health professionals. Our Instructors Our instructors are dedicated and knowledgeable. They love yoga and love sharing it with others. We encourage them to participate in ongoing training, so they can always offer the safest, most effective yoga techniques. Many of our instructors also hold certifications in other healing disciplines, bringing an even greater level of understanding about the body and all its intricacies to our practice. We have low staff turnover, which allows you to enjoy long-term, one-on-one connections with our teachers — the way yoga was originally intended to be experienced. |
