Amy Marchese ~ May 2013

Amy MarcheseIn 2003 Amy was introduced to Reiki, and soon after earned her Level 1 Reiki. In 2004 Amy was involved in a serious cycling accident, suffering long term injuries. This slowed Amy’s active life down, and led to extensive time spent on physiotherapy and many other treatment forms. A dependency on these various treatments was formed, as they were used to assist in controlling her pain. Amy became frustrated as there was no solution to the pain in this program.

Wanting to take healing into her own hands Amy began her path with yoga. Amy began practicing yoga in 2006. She practiced intermittently over the next couple years, struggling because of her injuries. It wasn’t until she looked past the physical aspect of yoga and understood yoga better that she was able to overcome her physical limitations.

From there she successfully incorporated yoga into her lifestyle and could do it well. Slowly Amy began getting stronger and felt great relief from her injuries. Yoga had helped so much in her recovery that she wanted to share this realization and to teach Yoga. Amy earned her teacher training certification during the summer of 2010 at Heaven on Earth Yoga and Wellness Institute with Karen Claffey, in Stoney Creek, Ontario.

Amy has been a secondary school teacher since 2001 and is an active member of her school community at Bishop Ryan Catholic Secondary School in Hamilton. She is an avid cyclist and enjoys an active lifestyle.

Jackie Fran ~ April 2013

Jackie FranJackie started doing yoga in 1997 as a way to balance her physical and spiritual interests. Yoga resonated with her immediately because of its holistic practices. Over the years she has come to love how yoga can be incorporated into her whole life to leave her feeling grounded, connected and positive.

Jackie was drawn into teaching because she wants to share all the tools of yoga with others. She was certified as a yoga instructor with Yoga by Sarah and has taken workshops with Michael Stone, Dawn Maxner and Maria Garre. She wants people to know that they have the ability to help heal themselves physically and emotionally and that there is nothing to be “good at” in yoga. “I want people to walk out of my classes feeling good for showing up and breathing. I want them to take that into their whole life.”

Could It Be You?

Could It Be You?

At Grimsby Yoga and Wellness we have developed a wonderful “community” environment where our members support and encourage each other in their development and goals.

Each month our members “nominate” an individual to highlight as our Featured Member of the Month.  All month long nominations are received with a little bit about why they were chosen.

It is again our members voices that speak here … Each one chosen by their fellow members, to share and celebrate their accomplishments.

To all that are highlighted here, Congratulations!
