"We look into that mirror of yoga and see the places in our body that need support, that need to open. Each breath, each movement, reflects who we are. We regard our own geography like archeologists unearthing hidden treasures.."

"Yoga has been such a great blessing for me and my life; it's only natural that I teach yoga so that others might receive some of the same."

Ellan Catacchio, RYT, CSYT

Ellan has been practicing yoga for many years. She has found the benefits to be helpful for managing stress and physical tension that seems to go hand-in-hand with (a) a career in the corporate environment and (b) a busy family life.

Ellan found Svaroopa yoga at The Centered Place in 2000. She began teacher training in 2003 and now knows that as a life-long endeavor. She is a RYT (at 500 hours training level) and Certified Svaroopa Yoga Teacher, and a Certified Embodyment Therapist. Along with teaching at The Centered Place, she teaches private classes for individuals and small groups.
