YOGA THERAPIST | HEALER | COACH
Hello my name is Annette Kucia, and I am passionate about health, wellness, emotional and physical resiliency. We need to love the body we live in. After all from the moment we are born we age, we change... Lets age well and live optimally.
We all feel challenged by the news, world conflicts, starvation, inflation, wars, conflicts, etc. There is so much fear. I don’t see the world this way. I see humanities strength; Humanities resolve; Humanities capacity to rise above is evident to me. Yes, I can get caught in my mind when the darkness of news floods my senses. I don’t ignore it. I act. My rituals, prayers. practice give me direction. My daily rituals strengthens inner resources. I would like to share these systems with you. We can be present with anything. Yoga Therapy and practices, rituals to support you, fortify you will lift you up. No matter where you are in life Yoga Therapy can help. I’d be honored to build a program for you. When can we start?
Where did my Yogic journey begin? In Arizona in my teens. Mother introduced me to Yoga at a ladies club called, Venus De Milo. When I reflect on the simple music less class and it’s participants it makes me chuckle . Given the exponential growth of Yoga and Yoga marketing today. Despite the number of Yoga marketers, I invite you to come to Yoga and Yoga Therapy with a spirit of curiosity, not a hard and fast definition of what Yoga is or is not.
After moving to England and teaching Aerobics, Step, Aqua and Circuit Classes and gaining my Personal Training credential as well, the constant training, pushing my body, without being aware of my body in space but caring for others pain, injuries started to show. I realized I couldn’t maintain this pace of life beyond 40’s, even though I loved offering group classes. Shortly, after a painful injury healed I was re-introduced to Yoga. A friend took me to Yoga for Health, The Yoga for Health foundation, based in a stately home in Ickwell Bury, Bedfordshire, England. I knew what I wanted to do. Yoga for Health changed my life in so many ways. "Yoga for Health" was in 2000 and I haven't stopped studying since. All of my classes are infused with Yoga.
Moreover, I’ve been gifted in this life time to train with some of the most notable teachers of our time; Dr Ray Long, Doug Keller, … more to come.
Presently, I have the pleasure of offering several genres/classes Aqua, Mat Pilates, BARRE, Chair and YOGA, Yoga, Yoga.
