MAETEL GRANT

Yoga has been an integral part of my life since I was a University student 50 years ago. After completing my M.Sc. in Physical Education at the University of Illinois, I moved to Ontario and introduced Yoga classes to the YWCA. I opened my own studio in 1977 and studied in Toronto with Marlene Mawhinney, Lisa Schwartz and Ester Meyers. In the late 1980s I travelled to Pune with a group of Canadian teachers to study with Mr Iyengar and Geeta. Since moving to BC I have been teaching at the West Vancouver Senior Centre and for the last several years at Yoga Moves.
