Catherine Munro
Catherine Munro began practicing yoga in 1989 while living in New York City.  She spent several years exploring many different yoga traditions leading to years of study in the Iyengar yoga tradition with many of its master teachers such as Faiq Biria, Manuso Manus, Ramanand Patel,
Aadil Palkivala, Joan White, Kevin Gardner, Lisa Walford, Paul Cabanis, Marla Apt and Kofi Busia.  She has also studied with renounwed teachers such as Judith Lasater, Donna Farhi, Dona Holleman and Rodney Yee.  Catherine was introduced to the Anusara tradition through workshops with John Friend and Viniyoga with Gary Kraftsow.  In recent years she has been practicing Ashtanga yoga as taught by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, under the guidance of Chuck Miller and Maty Ezraty.  In the Ashtanga tradition Catherine has also studied with Richard Freeman and the guru of Ashtanga, Pattabhi Jois.   

Catherine took the Yoga Works Teacher Training with the program originators Maty Ezraty & Lisa Walford and went on to assist the program several times with Maty, Lisa and Chuck Miller. She taught her first YW Training in 2003 in Orange County with James Brown and has enjoyed each subsequent training more than the last. Catherine was a teacher at Yoga Works In Los Angeles for several years before returning to her native Vancouver, B.C. where she now resides with her husband and son Ian. 

 

The practice of yoga has helped Catherine transition through some of life’s challenges with strength and introspection.  She is deeply grateful to her teachers for the passion and inspiration they instilled in her for both practice and teaching.

 

 

Irene Alexander
Irene Alexander has been studying yoga since 1998, and teaching yoga in Seattle since 2004.   She completed her teacher training at Pacific Yoga and has continued her training in the Anusara tradition with Denise Benitez, drawing inspiration as well from Donna Farhi, Shannon McCall, Buddhist meditation and modern dance.  Along the way, she has been continually blessed and inspired by the ways she has seen yoga transform lives and bodies, including her own.  In August, she will complete massage school, and she brings her knowledge of anatomy and a deep fascination with movement into her teaching.  Her classes offer students a chance to come into their bodies, play, explore, and experience themselves in a new way, while building strength and grace.
