Emilie Cook Experienced Yoga Instructor with Yoga Alliance, E-RYT200, RYT500
I came to yoga over eighteen 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 Have just completed my Yoga Therapeutics Training at The Asheville Yoga Center. I am now a Registered Yoga Teacher at the 500 hour level with an emphasis in yoga as therapy.

Carmen has been studying yoga since the age of thirteen when she was given a book on the subject by a dear friend. This early love led to a lifelong process of studying various yoga styles, including B.K.S. Iyengar, Transcendental Meditation, Viniyoga, Sivananda, Jivamukti, and Ashtanga yoga. Carmen taught her first yoga class in 1983. She has taught in Florida, Connecticut, and for the last 20years in Georgia.
