Vanessa Murray is a 500 RYT, 200E-RYT, YACEP, trauma informed and somatic influence Hatha Yoga teacher who focuses her training in the restorative and yin practices of therapeutic yoga. Using the chakras, aromatherapy and healing stones she offers her students a space to find relaxation, serenity, new-found insights, a deeper connection to self, source and healing within the poses. She also encourages her students to be empowered in their life and develop a spiritual routine that brings that sense of peace, relaxation, self-love, and connection they experience in her classes into their everyday lives. Vanessa is constantly studying to improve her instruction. In 2020 she attended a 300 hr. immersion training in India to deepen her connection to the true practice of yoga.  She has advanced certifications in Reiki L2-Okuden, Yoga Nidra, Children, Restorative, Trauma Informed and Yin Yoga. And she is an ordained minister to follow the level of Florida law for hands-on adjustments. Vanessa balances the Yin aspect with her Yang, USA Certified, Olympic Weightlifting Coaching.
