Mark Jones Bio
Mark began his practice of Yoga at age 42. Immediately upon seeing his 77-year old mother - who had been practicing yoga for over 30 years - swoop ease-fully into a full forward bend to pick up a kitten. "I remember committing at that moment to whatever it would take to earn such gracefulness at 77.'"
A trained ballet dancer, he applied careful attention to alignment while studying the classical yoga poses, resulting in a personal yoga style that combines a joy of movement with the strength of stillness.
This naturally evolved into teaching. "I needed a way to share these valuable, timeless lessons of perspective, patience and respect to help others de-stress from today's pressures, haste and anxieties!"
Mark received his 200-hour level Brahmrishi Yoga Teacher Training Certification in 2009. He seeks unique teaching opportunities to continue sharing Yoga's myriad health, mental and spiritual gifts with others. Look for him soon teaching "live" interactive classes via the internet! "Not only is Yoga good for our health - it is great for our hearts - helping us become better people to and for each other - including strangers!"
