Anna Colin was introduced to hatha yoga at a young age on Hornby Island, British Columbia, where she was born and raised. She began formal yoga training five years ago and is now a Certified Yoga Teacher through Yoga Alliance. She leads classes at many venues in the Kootenay region and team-teaches Trinity Yoga’s instructor-training workshops throughout western Canada. She lives in Nelson, B.C., where she also owns and operates her catering business, The Smoking Bowl.
Her commitment to the path of yoga has been strengthened and inspired by her studies with David Williams, Larry Schultz, Carol (Karuna) Ericson, Gioa Irwin, Eion Finn and, most recently, with Mary-Jo Fetterly and Jennifer Steed of Trinity Yoga.
Anna is trained as a recreational therapist and her experience as a health and healing professional informs her approach to yoga instruction. She is currently studying Ayurvedic medicine, and she looks forward to incorporating this ancient Indian practice into her teaching. Anna’s classes focus on alignment, technique and, most importantly, joy and lightness.
