Since 1992 I have practiced yoga in Belize on the islands and atolls. Recently I’ve been teaching yoga out on Lighthouse Reef Atoll and love the inspiring peace and beauty of the clear blue waters, white sand beaches and swaying palm trees.  I practice classical Ashtanga and Hatha yoga incorporating asana (yoga postures) with pranayama (breathing practices). The tradition of yoga unites the body, breath and mind, and is perfect way to relax, stretch and unwind before or after a day of kayaking, swimming and snorkelling. During Island Expeditions trips I tailor the classes to fit the group; this means classes are at a beginner level 1, with modifications to deepen the posture for level 2.  Typically we will have morning yoga before breakfast and if there is interest we can incorporate some afternoon sessions. There is nothing quite like doing your sun salutations far offshore on a picture perfect island  before a pristine sea or closing your eyes in relaxation (savasana) while the frigate birds circle overhead.  Hope to see you there!

Taylor’s classes consist of a mixture of Iyengar, Ashtanga, and Vinyasa style yoga. Classes are taught in a flowing sequence of poses and all include pranayama (breathing), svasana( final resting pose), and chakra balancing/opening poses. Certain classes will be themed such as toning and muscle building, heart chakra opening, yoga for woman and beginners.

The practice of yoga put me in touch with my body and I began to look at how I was using my body in my life.  I decided to start my career as a massage therapist in 2003 and in 2008 I became certified to teach yoga.  I have never looked back.  Yoga and body work have enabled me to continually grow and find new ways to expand myself  physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually ( I can attribute my recovery as a runner to yoga as well).  Just like my first teacher, I am interested in educating my students on the purpose of each posture and the safest way to “practice”.  My training is in Iyengar yoga which is heavily steeped in alignment and awareness of the body within the posture.  So, when we do a forward fold, we are not concerned with touching our toes.  We are interested in keeping a straight backline from our head to our waist, extending through the waist, grounding through our feet,  and feeling the stretch in our hamstrings.  My classes are geared toward the needs of my students, and are appropriate for the beginner as well as the advanced student.
