Carson’s exploration of yoga asanas began in 2006 in a local community class. At first, yoga was used as a tool to gain flexibility and supplement other athletic endeavors. After several years of practice, she began to realize yoga was not only a great form of exercise, but it also had a way of healing the mind from the stresses of an over-scheduled life. After many years of practice, Carson has begun to enjoy a deeper exploration of alignment and continues to gain awareness of the subtle and physical body. Her constant practice is to allow for grace both on and off the mat and to be present in this age of constant distractions and to-do lists. Carson truly believes that yoga is for everyone and aims to create a sense of community and respect in each class. After eleven years of yoga practice, Carson received her 200 hour Yoga Alliance teaching certificate under the direction of Sarah Silverman and Marisol Brito. Since the birth of her two children, Carson has transitioned her focus to teaching prenatal yoga and has continued her studies under Sarah Silverman. Carson’s classes focus on gentle strength-building, movement and breath-work to prepare the body for labor and the creation of space mentally and physically. Off the mat, Carson enjoys spending time with her husband, two children and her dog. She also enjoys hiking in the beautiful New Mexico sunshine, making her way through a never-ending list of books, traveling, and sharing adventures with family and friends.
