You'll find information on my teaching schedule, upcoming workshops, and past retreats.
I passionately love yoga and teach from my heart, using asana to support deeper connections within ourselves and within
our community.
My background includes a diverse set of professional experiences which enhance my yoga instruction, including acting,
yoga, dance, and massage therapy.
My yoga training has consisted of studying asana and philosophy with several master teachers in India such as: Sri K.
Pattabhi Jois, A. Vankatesh, and V. Shaeshadri. More recently, I've studied with Richard Freeman, Ana Forest, Sara Powers,
Paul Grilles, and David Swenson. Drawing from the teaching from these various teachers, my style stresses a strong fluid practice
with emphasis on heart-mind-body connections.

"Deborah Burkman stands out for her dedication to her students, often helping them with problems off the mat as well
as on it."
