Light In The Dark Yoga Beaufort SC | About
light-in-the-dark-yoga-cindyCindy’s teaching is focused on the restorative aspects of yoga, meeting each student where they are in the present moment. She has been practicing yoga since high school, when she was introduced to Eastern philosophy by a beloved teacher. Since that time, the path has included both formal teachings, and life itself. Having been transformed by yoga and meditation personally, she wanted to share this gift with others and completed her initial teacher training at the Kusum Institute in 2014, and her 500-hour certification at the Asheville Yoga Center in 2018. Cindy is continually inspired by her students and it is her hope that the practice is a doorway to inner peace, insight and balance.

“The light that yoga sheds on life is something special. It is transformative. It does not just change the way we see things; it transforms the person who sees.” ~ B.K.S. Iyengar

Light In The Dark Yoga Beaufort SC | Gratitude

Gratitude

My yoga journey began and continues with my mentor and teacher Penny Kusum Clum. Her guidance and inspiration have profoundly affected my life, and Light in the Dark Yoga is possible because of her encouragement. There are other countless individuals to thank for this gift of yoga. The following are just a few of the teachers who have made such a difference: Pattabhi Jois, B.K.S. Iyengar, David Swenson, Richard Freeman, Jack Kornfield, Sharon Salzberg, Ram Das, Krishna Das and all of my students.

Sangha

This Sanskrit word generally meaning community or assembly is such an important part of yoga practice. Sharing this experience with others changes us. The energy can add a new dimension to our personal exploration, and there is comfort in knowing we are not alone.

Yoga is the practice of quieting the mind.
-Patanjali
