Raina Fishbane
Teacher
I've always loved activities that keep me in constant motion, like running or tennis. Yoga did not speak to me until I was introduced to Iyengar yoga, which I have now studied for 10 years. I have become stronger and more flexible than I have been in years. But it has also given me a way to quiet my mind, improve my mood and boost my energy. The day no longer feels complete without some time on my mat.
Why I Practice
For me, teaching is all about relationships and community. I love how much I learn as I teach, and teaching has helped me to deepen my practice in ways I never imagined. I have been so lucky to study with some incredible teachers and I am so grateful that I can share what I have learned.
