She has studied with teachers such as Tim Miller, Doug Swenson, Dharma Mittra, Eric Schiffman and many more individuals who have left imprints on her practice and teachings. Her experiences have awakened a internal/external healing process that has cultivated a unique approach to her teachings. Adi has learned that there are multiple modalities to healing mind and body. She offers specific tools for each individual to extend his/her own growth & wisdom within yoga practice. Adi has studied lyengar, Ashtanga, Anusara, Restorative, Pre-Natal, Yin and Theraputic yoga. She currently teaches Ashtanga and Vinyasa classes, and offers private and semi-private classes that focus on individual needs. Her approach encourages students to understand where each pose should be felt, rather than being attached to looking like the pose in the picture. She also incorporates pranayama ( breath control) into her teachings to de-stress and relax the mind and body.
