DIANE RITUCCI

Certified Anusara Yoga Teacher E-RYT 500 (Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher With 500+ hours Of Training) My journey into teaching Yoga began over 20 years ago after a serious physical injury which profoundly impacted my physical and emotional body. Yoga has helped me to heal and become more accepting with the realization that everything, the joys and the suffering, is given for our own awakening. My passion for sharing the gift of Yoga is fueled by the profound effect it has had on my own life. Shortly after receiving a yoga teacher certification from Kripalu, I was introduced to Anusara yoga and my heart awakened to the transformative power of this discipline and method of teaching. I have studied with many renowned teachers including Douglas Brooks, Todd Norian, Christopher Wallis, Paul Mueller Ortega, Bill Mahony and Alejandra Siroka. One of the many things I have learned from these teachers is the mythology of the deities. I love sharing these stories that reflect our own humanity and help us to see ourselves more clearly. With this clarity comes the inspiration for creativity which I express in my artworks of painting, drawing and jewelry design. My classes are infused with a heart theme that I weave through the movement of asana while maintaining a keen eye for alignment keeping my students safe and supported. I will forever remain a student of Yoga. My heart lies in the connection with my students and my love of teaching.

What people say

"Diane is a great teacher, I learned from her not only yoga practice, but how to release my mind. After every session, I am always reminded that we connect to the energy of this world, earth, universe,... The class helps me a lot to reset my mind to neutral state, which is very important for our kind of job,--making movies--and everyday life. "
