I first came in contact with Ashtanga Yoga in 2001, and with time and some experience, cultivating a sattvic lifestyle and consistent practice became cornerstones of my life. The Ashtanga Yoga system is complex and has incredible power to transform and I wanted to learn this method the old fashioned way, at the feet of an experienced teacher.
Senior Ashtanga Yoga teacher and lineage holder Annie Pace, who received her Advanced B certification directly from Pattabhi Jois, took me in as her apprentice and my studies with her are on-going.
Additionally, I have travelled to Mysore annually (except during the pandemic) to study traditional Hindustani music with Mrs. Reena Mukherjii, Yogic tradition, pranayama and philosophy with Dr. KLS Jois, as well as asana, pranayama and chanting with R. Saraswathi Jois at the Sri K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute.
It has been an immense honor to assist R. Saraswathi Jois in her shala in Mysore and in 2020 receive her blessing and rare, official authorization to teach this method.
In addition to leading my own programs, I am very grateful for the opportunity to assist Annie Pace, as well as Christine Hoar (Ashtanga Montauk, NY) when possible.
In 2021, I started GLÂNZ GHEE in Telluride and I am very proud to offer hand fired, classic Ghee, herbal infused and medicinal Ghee, as well as Chocolate Hazelnut Schmear. All products are made by hand, in small batches, from consciously sourced, top quality ingredients. I am so proud and happy to share this with everyone and hope you head over to my website and check it out. Click here for more information.
"It has been a joy to witness Barbara evolve since 2015. She exhibits a wisdom beyond her years, and is quick to grasp the deeper meanings and "old school" approach to the practice. Barbara has been able to aptly step into various roles of assistance for me (she never knows what she will be called upon to do around Shakti Sharanam...) When I work with her students I see the results of her own authentic teaching, and the joy of practice prevails!" Annie Pace, Shakti Sharanam, Crestone (CO)
“Babs understands the beauty and sacred nature of the teachings and promotes these aspects of the practice by actions big and small: creating lovely altar offerings, chanting sacred mantra and prayers, reading scripture, and holding compassionate space. I look forward to sharing the teaching space again and again with her.” Christine Hoar, Ashtanga Yoga & Ayurveda, Montauk (NY).
