Pearl completed a three week residential Advanced Teacher Training Program with Donna Farhi and Marcia Monroe in New Zealand, January 2008. Pearl was grateful to have the opportunity to assist Donna Farhi in her workshop in Pittsburgh, July 2008.
Pearl is honoured to include in her teaching experience local hospitals, high schools, the YMCA, community programs, corporate spaces and fitness centers as well as guest lecturing in the Sheridan College Yoga Teacher Training Program. Pearl is thankful to each student for sharing and allowing her to learn and grow through her teaching.
Pearl feels yoga should be a time to consciously give all of ones attention to oneself: an honest exploration of the possibilities through movement, breath and the stillness of introspection. Pearl is respectful and compassionate to this exploration, inviting students to learn in a playful, safe environment, where laughter and acceptance of real bodies is a given as students open themselves to truly explore the embodiment of Yoga poses.
Pearl believes a regular yoga practice invites health, well-being and peace of mind. She feels honoured to share this knowledge, wisdom and love of being with her students and in her direction of Sari Yoga Centre.
