Kevin Ryan, RYT-200

After utilizing yoga with his students and athletes for nearly twenty of his thirty-plus years of teaching and coaching, Kevin recently was certified in the RYT-200 program offered by Samyoga Institute/Shiva Shakti Synthesis. As a runner, biker, cross-country skier, back-packer and overall outdoor enthusiast, Kevin well recognizes the healthful physical benefits of yoga, but he has been especially drawn to yoga because of its emotional and spiritual benefits as well. In classes ranging from Gentle Hatha to Easy Vinyasa to encouraging people to re-embrace their aging bodies, Kevin always seeks the yogic goal of the union of body, mind, and spirit. He incorporated this approach in his first publication, Seeing God Everywhere: Living Your Life as a Prayer.

Along with teaching and working at a local bakery, Kevin also engages in retreat work and seminars that focus on spirituality, prayer, and living life more fully.
