Tina Baker (Yoga)
About
As an avid runner 15 years ago, Tina began practicing yoga in an effort to balance her training and minimize her risk of injury.
Initially inspired by the rhythmic flow of Ashtanga Yoga; she later added Hatha Yoga to her practice."I was amazed at how beneficial Yoga was in terms of gaining physical fitness and emotional clarity." Tina believes that breath awareness and alignment are key and honouring our "individual body type" is vital.
"Over the years, Yoga has convinced me that 'less really is more'. Yoga is so powerful! We can build grace & strength through a gentle, enjoyable daily practice; creating 'meditation-in- motion'. "Finding "sukha" (sweetness, ease) in every pose is essential and it's what keeps me coming back for more".
"Yoga has made such a positive impact on my life, I would like to share my passion with others".
Tina draws inspiration from Caroline Klebl Phd, David Swenson, Sean Corn, Maria Garre, Kelly McGonigal Phd, Joe Banwait, Janine Woo, Karen Cove and Karusia Wroblewski. In 2011 Tina made a choice to dedicate herself further and traded her corporate office for a yoga mat. Tina completed her Yoga Teacher Training at The Yoga Sanctuary in Toronto. She is a registered Yoga Alliance teacher.
"My Yoga journey is on-going; I continue to look within to bring out the best that I can give".
