Nancy Silverman, RYT 500hr
Nancy began practicing yoga at the age of 16 as a means of healing injuries caused by competitive dance and years on the field playing soccer. What she discovered was that the practice of yoga was not only a means of maintaining physical fitness, but also helped achieve mental clarity and reduced anxiety. With a passion to share what she had learned, Nancy obtained her 200hr yoga teaching certification in Hatha Yoga in 2012 under the guidance of Allie Hill in Morocco. Her teaching brought her to London, England where for nearly 4 years she taught regular classes and workshops to every demographic from ballerinas to builders. Hungry for more, Nancy spent 8 weeks in India in 2015 obtaining her 300hr Ashtanga Yoga certification under the guidance of Kamal Singh and Sunil Sharma. Now living back in Canada, Nancy is thrilled to have the opportunity to share her passion for the practice with her fellow Canadians! Nancy believes that the practice of yoga should be challenging and growth-oriented, but most of all FUN! She aims to teach a method that is accessible by all ages, levels of fitness and levels of flexibility. She encourages her students to "be brave!" and surprise themselves with how amazing their bodies can be.
