I met Christy Fisher, Founder of Phinney Ridge Yoga, years ago and occasionally make the trek from Queen Anne to her studio. I am always so happy when I do! Christy is an amazing instructor with a wealth of knowledge, who is excellent at making classes adaptable for everyone. Tonight, though, I attended Gentle Yoga for Neck & Shoulders with an instructor I hadn’t met before named Alene Moroni. She was very warm, welcoming, and always encouraging us to do what felt right for our own bodies. My neck was stiff before class and it is moving so much better. My shoulders are lower and not so forward. My chest is more open and my breathing is much slower and deeper. Aaaahhhh…

I love Phinney Ridge Yoga
