Ani began yoga while in graduate school to help relieve stress and found it amazingly effective. Always the teacher and wanting others to have this tool she attended the teacher training at Kripalu Centre for Yoga.
Ani has been influenced by the teachings of Vanda Scaravelli and her ideas of breath awareness, ground and the wave of the spine in which, “you become intelligent and at the same time you are happy.” Scaravelli’s book Awakening the Spine (Harper San Francisco, 1995) has become a classic.
While living in Costa Rica Ani trained and completed the certification for Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy thus deepening her yoga practice.
Her journey took her back to Mexico where she met and studied for 5 years with Irene Beer who had formed Namaste International to certify teachers in Scaravelli’s ideas emphasizing the ground, breath and spine.
She teaches in at Activos Gym on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings at 9:00am.
