In addition to offering group classes every day of the week at the Yoga from the Heart Studio, Lynn and her staff of RYT yoga instructors offer private and semi-private yoga instruction. In her private sessions Lynn has developed a particular expertise in applying yoga for athletes to enhance performance and adapting yoga for individuals with medical and health issues. Her deep interest in the science and practice of integrative medicine — the discipline of modern science with the wisdom of ancient healing – has led to collaboration with medical doctors and alternative medical practitioners.
Lynn facilitates a multi-disciplinary treatment approach that helps transform the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of patient's lives. Her private yoga practice supports patients with Parkinson's Disease, scoliosis, and back injuries as well as those who are not ill but wish to increase self-awareness, enhance well-being, and prevent health-related
challenges.
As a local personality, Lynn's reputation has grown with each passing year. In 2002, Lynn was awarded the prestigious Woman Entrepreneurial Award by the Sarasota Chamber of Commerce. Recognized again in 2006 for her commitment to excellence, she was voted as having the #1 Yoga Class in Sarasota by Sarasota Magazine. In 2007, SNN News Channel 6 selected Yoga from the Heart and Lynn to highlight yoga as part of Antawan Smith's Summer Workouts program. 2008 rewarded Lynn and Yoga from the Heart with Nattie awards for "Most Favorite Yoga Instructor" and "Most Favorite Yoga Studio" from Sarasota's Natural Awakenings Magazine.
Recognized for her experience, knowledge and practical real-life approach to yoga, Lynn was interviewed by Women's Health Magazine in September 2006 and 2007 as well as US News and World report in June 2007. In 14 November 2007, Lynn's story of personal growth was a feature article in Sarasota's Pelican Press. LifestyleTV.com asked Lynn to write a feature article for their website in 2008.
Lynn is grateful for and influenced by the teachings of B.K.S Iyengar. Although she has trained with many of the most influential Iyengar-inspired yoga teachers of our time, her principal instructors have been Rodney Yee and Patricia Walden.
