Dana Rae Tucker-Anastasi
Yoga for me is the stilling of the constant swirl of life. Through time in a physical practice over a regular schedule I soon found that it was not life that was swirling around me. It was me swilling around my own mind. Yoga provides me the space to settle and take in without reaction.
While initially started as something new to try between a busy work and school schedule; Yoga has become a vital part of my life that has made balancing marriage, motherhood, and a career possible. Now on my new path as a teacher I hope to provide a space for others fine stillness and peace.
Daria Markham
I started I started practicing yoga after the birth of my son, mainly as a physical practice to build strength. I was drawn to Hatha yoga because it was very fulfilling to my active lifestyle. I find yoga healing and meditative especially after experiencing some health related setbacks in my life. I am a kinesthetic learner and the feel of the movement is often described in my grounding and foundational based teaching style. I started teaching children’s yoga and took my teacher training through Rainbow Kids Yoga in 2013. I pursued my 200 Hour Teacher Training certification through Breathe Yoga in 2015. Throughout my career as a Therapeutic Recreation Specialist I have worked with children, adolescent youth, adults in rehabilitation and the elderly. Loved it all. Currently, you will find me also instructing at the local YMCAs of Greater Rochester and Community Based yoga studios.
