Tish Roy CSYT, RYT500 A Certified Svaroopa® Yoga Teacher, Registered Yoga Teacher Tish has been diving into the practice of Svaroopa® Yoga since 2000. It all began quite innocuously with a weekly Svaroopa® Yoga class which over time blossomed into a deep love for the teachings. Her life before Svaroopa® Yoga left Tish existing with physical pain, fatigue, and a busy mind. She desired more. Through her experiences in class along with hearing the yogic teachings she realized there was something more. Tish subsequently devoted herself to a daily practice of Svaroopa® Yoga and immersed herself in teacher training. Quite organically it allowed her to receive what the ancient yogic texts promised- healing, personal transformation and most importantly the deep knowing of her true nature-bliss. Due to her profound personal experience Tish changed careers, opening her own yoga studio that creatively co-exists on her property in Woodstock Valley, CT It is here that she inspires & engages the community sharing the practice & teachings on many levels, including Beginners, Continuing, Deeper, and Prenatal classes. She further teaches Meditation & facilitates a philosophy discussion group. Her certifications include Embodyment® Therapist, Vichara Facilitator and Leading Teacher. In addition Tish is a Teacher Trainer for Foundations Courses and currently serves as Board Chair for Master Yoga Foundation. Tish finds her 20 years of clinical social work experience to enhance her capacity to skillfully support & hold the space for students as they lay the foundation for their own personal shifts & openings.
I look forward to offering you a whole new way to live in your body & mind by deepening your inner experience and applying that learning to life. Namaste ~Tish
