ALIGNINTUIT

Kelly Griswold

BFA, E-RYT 500, Thai Yoga Massage, Reiki, Massage

 

To  be a yogi is to be courageous. I always considered myself a courageous  being.  At times, this quality got me into a lot of trouble.  I love  thrill and adventure, I am never afraid to love, rarely afraid to fall,  and always willing to take the path less traveled while looking fear in the face. 

However, yoga taught me the courage to also look inside and embrace silence and stillness; all the things that are not so  “thrilling," and most importantly myself.  Yoga taught, and is still teaching me to be more balanced within my courage and to know when boundaries are necessary to remain safe, to move and grow with more ease, and to keep good company within my life.

I bravely stepped out on my own and opened  Sundance Yoga Studio (voted best studio in 2001) in Houston, Texas back  in 1999 when there were not so many of us in Texas.  At the time it was a gamble for me, but I had a deep love for something  that I felt compelled to share with others.

What a great “path less traveled” this became!

My  formal path began in 1996 with the lovely, Raye Lynn Rath, one of the first senior teachers of Anusara Yoga, receiving my 200 hr Teacher  Certification from her in 1998. Being so lucky to live in the same  hometown as John Friend (founder of Anusara Yoga), I was  introduced early to this system, in 1999. Receiving the majority of my hours with Raye Lynn, John Friend and Mary Romeu (also one of the first senior teachers of Anusara), as well as, the infectious and lovable,  Douglas Brooks, studying the Tantric Philosophies. John was paramount in  my training, however Mary to this day, I feel as my most influential teacher.  She brought me the feminine, softer quality, incorporated with strength that I needed most in my teaching, and in my own personal practice. I  offer my deepest gratitude to the students, to Mary and to the rest of  the Anusara community that have helped me along this path of growth and  knowledge.

By 2003, I had received well over 500 hours of  intermediate and advanced training, all within the realms of some of the  best teachers within Anusara and had already taught thousands of hours  of yoga. I then sold my studio and took a year off for study, reflection, personal practice and travel. I believe this time to have  been one of the most important steps in my evolution as a teacher.  From  2005-2009 I worked as the Director/Head Yoga Instructor/Thai Yoga  Massage Therapist at MindBody studio, Mint Fitness, in DC until moving  to Switzerland in 2009. I have Directed/Co-Directed (5) 200 hr Teacher Training Certifying courses in both Texas and Switzerland. 

Anusara is at the root of my knowledge and style.  However, I have  expanded my knowledge and passion beyond Anusara and found my own creative path. I believe my gift in teaching has developed into one that  explores creative ways for all types of students to move from the  Outside-In and discover how the body itself can connect us deeper into a spiritual path of Love.  Eventually developing into ALIGNINTUIT, a unique system founded during Covid and as anything creative, will always be expanding. Fostered from Anusara, but  blossomed from personal practice and exploration and from the thousands  of classes I have taught over the years with a deep love to help others  have their own self discoveries. I will forever be a student of yoga,  both on and off the mat. I find it a journey that never ends,  only pulsates with new and diverse explorations. My hope is to help  others to know their own path more clearly, to be courageous on the  journey of self discovery and to have fun doing it!
