Ganga Auer, R.Y.T.
Ganga has a teaching degree from Hungary. She is a registered Yoga Alliance teacher with 1,100 hours of training and is certified in Kundalini Yoga, in Hatha Yoga by the Esther Myers Yoga Studio, Toronto, Canada and in Babaji’s Kriya Hatha Yoga. Ganga has intensively practiced yoga since 1995. Since 1998 she has gained more than 2,500 hours of teaching experience. She opened her studio, the YogaRoom in Downtown Barrie, Canada in November 2005. She has been inducted into the Babaji's Kriya Yoga Order of Acharyas in December 2009. As a spiritual teacher she leads weekend seminars teaching breathing and meditation techniques from the Kriya Yoga tradition.
Ganga's daily practice and main teaching combines the ancient Indian tradition of Kriya Yoga with the Western style of Vanda Scaravelli’s method. She was greatly influenced by her teachers: Durga Ahlund, Esther Myers, Diane Long and Sat Dharam Kaur. Through the connection to the ground, the breath, the spine and the soul this type of yoga brings awareness, rejuvenation and relaxation into the body and the mind. She has a great passion to teach the classical Babaji's Kriya Hatha Yoga and the very dynamic Kundalini Yoga. Her goal is to help others to live happier and healthier by expanding the yoga practice from the mat into everyday life. She loves to learn and share her knowledge with others.
Barbara Marshall, MA, OYA R
Barb first practiced yoga as a teenager and has been teaching yoga since 2002. A graduate of the teacher training program of the prestigious Esther Myers Studio in Toronto, she has over 1,000 hours of training and is a registered teacher through the Ontario Yoga Association.
For Barb yoga is “self transformation through awareness”. In yoga you become aware of how you breathe, think and move. With this awareness, change happens. Yoga can literally change your life! Barb teaches in a gentle manner with attention to the individual needs of students. She is inspired by the work of Vanda Scaravelli, whose influential book Awakening the Spine demonstrates that yoga is more about “undoing” than “doing”, and that age is no barrier to the valuable practice of yoga.
Barb is currently immersed in the teaching and practice of John Friend's Anusara Yoga. She has been enriched by the teaching of Vanda’s principal student, Diane Long of Italy, as well as her other students, including Jayelle Lindsay, a physiotherapist and Advanced Kripalu Yoga Teacher in Guelph, Ont. and Joanne Royce, a yoga teacher in Sharon, Ont. Barb is delighted to share her knowledge. She is deeply grateful to her teachers and to students who want to explore yoga.
