MEREDITH WADSWORTH
Since discovering yoga at 15, the practice has become a foundational pillar in Meredith's life, empowering her to discover and cultivate a greater sense of self and tools for living well. Her practice and teaching draws upon her varied background in vinyasa, yin, myofascial release, katonah yoga and functional movement, and is interwoven with a creative spirit that stems from her work as a ceramic artist. She seeks to guide students in spreading their awareness from the gross to the subtle, from what is experienced out in the external world to what is experienced in one's inner world, so that it may radiate back out with greater intention, embodiment, and mindful impact. Her classes create a dialogue between body, breath, and imagination paired together with a sense of humor, playfulness and boundless curiosity. She believes that through practice we find community, get to know ourselves, make the unconscious conscious, and cultivate joy in the moment.
