Mary Simmons. My Yoga journey began with videos in the early mornings and late evenings to decompress from the highly stressful world of corporate lawyering. Yoga offered a healing and joyful energy that I craved. After retiring from my legal practice, I found my way to a real Yoga class and my life was forever altered. At first, I only noticed physical benefits (though it took me nearly 6 months to complete a Chaturanga without my knees and 3 years for my heels to reach the floor in a yogic squat!), but I longed for more. In February 2006, I enrolled in Inner Visions 200-Hour Teacher Training Program with the goal of gaining a deeper understanding of why I was experiencing changes not only in my physical body but in my soul. Following graduation in June 2006, I immediately signed up for the 300-Hour Teacher Training Program to continue the amazing inward journey, completing those studies in late summer 2007. I have been sharing the Joy of Yoga with students in various settings throughout the East Valley since the summer of 2006.
My Level 1 and Level 1-2 classes at Inner Vision embrace the principle of Ahimsa (non-harming). I emphasize alignment so that each student can find their full expression of each posture; I strive to inspire each student to find their own inner rhythm, to discover the level that is optimum for them and to accept where they are at the present moment without judgment. My classes seek to empower students to discover their own inner strengths and authentic paths.
