About Nancy: Nancy began practicing Ashtanga Yoga over 30 years ago with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois in Mysore, India. She is the first Western Woman to be taught Ashtanga Yoga! As a result of her close association with Pattabhi Jois, Nancy is able to teach with the style and touch that was transmitted directly from Guruji. Nancy also has a Buddhist Meditation practice and is a student of Baba Hari Das. She is the director of the House of Yoga and Zen on Maui. Nancy travels to Europe (Eastern and Western), Japan, India, and across the U.S. teaching workshops with the intention of sharing her experience of yoga with others. Her studies have led her to the dharma teachings of the Dalai Lama and the expression of love and compassion for all beings. After more than 30 years of Ashtanga practice, Nancy is more convinced than ever that this style of yoga as taught to her by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois works best when it is followed strictly to the original form and she continues to teach as he taught her.
