Yoga on the River

by

We are excited to kick off our summer series of Yoga On The River. The first day of this six week series will begin on June 18th at 9am at the Pavilion. It will continue every Saturday for 6 weeks. Yoga By The River is sponsored by Olivette Development, and is free for residents to attend. Our featured yoga instructor is our neighbor Alison Patronik.

Before moving to Asheville in 2019, Alison lived in London where she became a student of yoga and a yoga teacher.  She continues to be both.  Her teaching is very much informed by her own practice and describes her style as informed, playful and interactive.  She’s passionate about movement and teaches a slow, breath-based form of yoga.  Aside from being inspired by her clients, Alison is inspired by the philosophy of yoga and how the practice reaches far beyond the mat into daily life.  She loves to share this ancient tradition and teaches to all levels.  Alison is published on the subject of yoga and wrote a book which forms part of a series published by Singing Dragon for yoga teachers: Developing a yoga home practice, an exploration for yoga teachers and trainees (published under the name of Alison Leighton).
