LYB Mindset Facilitator

About me: At the heart of who I am is a curious learner and teacher. In all that I do, I value providing a welcoming and supportive learning environment that allows for authentic expression and being connected in community. I am a Certified Anusara teacher (500RYT) and also hold a Master's in Teaching (K-6). Some of my passions include being in nature especially near the mountains and I love spending time with friends and family cooking and eating.  

Why LYB: I believe in the mission of LYB and feel that it provides a needed and valued service. I am inspired by LYB because through it's training and philosophy, it has made me become a better human being - more patient, accepting and compassionate.

Superhero: My superhero is my mom! Why? Because she is unshakeable, steady, gracious at all times, profoundly loving and generous.

Resources: I teach drop-in classes, series-based classes (like the Intro to Yoga series) as well as trainings. My class pacing tends to be slow and mindful and I love sharing healthy alignment practices that allow students to ""befriend"" their bodies. 8 Limbs Yoga Centers: https://8limbsyoga.com/ For other offerings including private sessions, retreats and/or to connect with me check out my website: nancyburtenshaw.com
