12 Apr Brienne Derosier
Brienne is an ambitious spirit with a dual passion for yoga and design. She founded and runs a sustainable interior design firm (2yokedesign.com) and a yoga storage company (heymache.com) for the at-home and studio-based yogi. For more than two decades, Brienne has been evolving her yoga practice from what started as a “Type-A”-style motivation to get a “good workout” and has since flourished into a breath-centered, alignment-focused practice aimed to cultivate personal self-connection and resonant mind/body awareness. She carries yoga certifications in Vinyasa Yoga, Aerial Yoga and Restorative Aerial Yoga, and is seeking her Heliotropic Breathwork certification in the near future.
As an active woman that manages chronic joint pain and other auto-immune-related symptoms, Brienne emphasizes proper joint support, skeletal alignment and prop-assisted pose modifications. One of Brienne’s favorite moments while teaching is when she can hear the whole room breathing, each individual’s breath a golden thread woven into the brilliant tapestry of the class collective. This is where the magic happens, she believes. Brienne encourages her students to customize each practice to honor their unique physical and mental state, the present moment, the season and their personal intention.
Brienne will be sharing Morning Yoga: Breathe, Move + Meditate.
