Director of YOGA CENTER AMHERST, and the developer of EMBODYOGA™ In-Depth Study & Teacher Training Programs. She has synthesized more than 35 years of knowledge, personal practice, and teaching experience into this highly educational, deeply experiential and inspiring program. Patty was among the first wave of teacher–trainers in the U.S. while in residence at the Center for Yoga, Los Angeles in 1985 and later as co–owner of Yoga Works, Santa Monica. Patty has practiced series 1, 2 and 3 of Ashtanga Vinyasa and has studied seriously with many of the world’s foremost Yoga teachers. Primary teachers have been Ana Forrest, Angela Farmer, Aadil Palkhivala and Richard Freeman. Patty currently studies with Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen.

Patty’s breath and awareness centered teaching approaches asana and vinyasa practice as an expression of consciousness, and as fertile ground for gaining self–knowledge and increasing awareness of Source. Her teaching incorporates a deep knowledge of alignment that is profoundly influenced by the innovative approach to consciousness and full embodiment that is presented by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen of the School for Body–Mind Centering®. Patty has completed certificate programs in Embodied Anatomy™ and Embodied Developmental Movement™ in the Teaching of Yoga.

Patty is a teacher of Tantric and Transcendental Meditation and has maintained a daily practice of postures, pranayama and meditation for more than 35 years. She brings a strong understanding of all aspects of Yoga practice and philosophy to this rich curriculum for training teachers.

The designing and teaching of this program is an act of love, and Patty offers her gratitude to all of her wonderful teachers.
