About Deborah, RYT

DeborahDeborah’s journey of practicing yoga began in 2005 on a trip to the Caribbean where she joined her sister, Lisa, a yoga fit/pilates instructor for daily yoga classes on the beach. She was so inspired after that trip that she began taking yoga classes at Mountaingoat Yoga Centre where she was drawn to Heather’s hot power yoga classes and loved the union of the mind, body & soul. Deborah began exploring Yin, Hatha and Iron Yoga classes and on every trip Deborah went on she found yoga centres to take various yoga classes. It was Deborah’s desire to learn more and deepen her practice in 2009 that she registered for the Hatha Yoga Teacher Training program at Rama Lotus Yoga Centre and graduated in the spring 2010. She is passionate about sharing her love of yoga with her family, friends and community. Deborah’s energy and passion for life comes out in her yoga practice of loving- kindness!

She draws on over 25 years of her professional background as a chartered accountant and certified corporate director in diverse leadership roles in business and governance. Along with over 30 years of her own personal interest in health & fitness (running ½ marathons, spinning classes, weight training and teaching aerobics for 10 years) …she is most grateful for her healthy body, mind and soul.

Deborah acknowledges the teaching and guidance she received from her yoga teachers, classmates and students. Through that support, she has discovered that with an open mind you can deepen your yoga practice and become a more mindful, joyful and happy being.

Shanti, Shanti, Shanti!
