Emilie Cook (owner) Experienced Yoga Instructor with Yoga Alliance, E-RYT200, RYT500

I came to yoga over 24 years ago when I stepped foot into my first yoga class. Yoga became an immediate and lasting influence in my life. I practiced yoga faithfully for the next decade and through all three of my pregnancies. I have studied with Gary Kraftsow, Joe Taft, Michael Johnson, Doug Keller, Libby Hensley, and Kathryn Budig. The physical benefits of yoga and the mental peace that I experienced during my practice eventually led me to
receive my 200 hour certification from Peachtree Yoga Center in Atlanta. I have been teaching several classes every week since 2007.
My teaching style is a combination of the Iyengar and Vinyasa style. With heavy emphasis on breath awareness and proper alignment. I am a certified, registered yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance, as well as a certified prenatal yoga instructor. I have experience with pilates, thi chi, and yin yoga. I have taught yoga for kids, prenatal, restorative, senior, yoga for athletes and gentle yoga. My heart lies with gentle yoga and my teaching reflects that. I recently attended an extensive weekend workshop with Gary Kraftsow, where I honed my yoga as therapy skills. Above all I believe yoga should feel good. I always strive to have you leave my classes feeling better than when you came. And I believe yoga should be fun so be aware you may have to endure my silly yoga jokes! I completed my Yoga Therapeutics Training at The Asheville Yoga Center in 2017. I am now a Registered Yoga Teacher at the 500 hour level with an emphasis in yoga as therapy.
