Is your practice ready to move to the next level, but with knowledge, awareness, patience and correct alignment? Then Yoga 201 is where it’s at.
In this 2 hour workshop, Amy will take you through your flow and find those moments where there’s options or space for something a bit more interesting. For example, you’ve probably heard an instructor say, “take sugar cane if that’s in your practice,” and maybe you’re not sure if it is or isn’t. Well, let’s find out.
This workshop is designed so that you can ask questions and learn about exactly what happens, physically in the body, and how the joints are stacked properly and what muscles need to be engaged and coincidentally what muscles don’t need to engage in order to experience this next level of intermediate yoga poses.
Poses to cover:
- Side Plank
- Flipped dog
- Wild Thing
- Skandasana
- Sugarcane
- Revolved & Bound Half Moon
- SideAngle into Bird of Paradise
- Floor Bow
- Wheel
Requests for poses are available as well.
Come try the fun and see where YOGA 201 with Amy can take you.

About the instructor: Amy Starner
Amy grew up in Missoula, MT. She began dancing at the age of 5 and never stopped. After graduating with a BFA in Dance Performance, she spent the next 15 years as a professional dancer in Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle, Indianapolis, and abroad. Looking for a transition out of performing, Amy completed her MFA in Dance & Choreography at UC-Irvine in 2006, followed by completing a certification in the Pilates Method. She then settled in West Seattle with her family and was thrilled to discover Spira Power Yoga, her new second home.
Amy completed Spira Power Yoga 200 hour Teacher Training Program with Dora Gyarmati and she is looking forward to mentoring with Dora to deepen her practice. Amy also finds inspiration from JL Chiemingo.
Amy’s dance background, coupled with many years of teaching movement, has given her a keen ability to truly teach from the inside out; not just making asana, but feeling what’s happening inside your body. While she enjoys the physical “work-out” that Power Yoga can provide, she relishes the spiritual “work-in” that only yoga can offer – aligning mind, body & spirit. Amy invites you to come to your mat, find your breath and honor yourself. Come find your Yoga Glow!
